The Utah River Festival is coming up
and one of the events is a 100 bird tour on June 11 and 12 (Friday and
Saturday). The bird tour starts at 5:30 am each day at Ouray NWR
and will move up into the higher elevations of Forest Service lands. Today
we did a practice run. Here at Ouray, in 3 1/2 - 4 hours we listed
62 birds. Only a couple of those are migrating through so are questionable
for the June 11 and 12, so we are expecting a good list of birds for the
morning. For the day, it will be a great way to see birds in a wide
range of habitats in a short distance. Come join us.
