PROGRAM FULL - Young Birders Club Field Trip at First Creek Park

This trip will be a flat 2-4 mile walk on various trail surfaces, and is timed to get us some new spring migrants to the Denver area. Incoming birds we could see include swallows, migrating sparrows and teals that wont stick around for long, flycatchers, warblers, and of course, raptors! The first half of the walk will be exposed and possibly windy, and the second half will be along First Creek's riparian corridor. Please wear appropriate footwear and layers, and bring a full water bottle and snacks if you want them. Binoculars and field guides are recommended as always, but we may have a few loaners available.
