Bird Walks
Let’s look and listen for wild birds! Our informal bird walks are open to everyone, from veteran birders to those venturing out for the first time. Most trips are led by an experienced birder.
- All members and guests MUST register to attend a bird walk. Members who have paid their annual dues will be given preference for all field trips.
- If plans change and you can’t attend, please cancel your reservation so someone else can fill the spot.
- Anyone under age 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Except for service dogs, pets are NOT permitted.
- Bring your own water, hat, sunscreen, binoculars, and field guide or birding app.
- Every participant must have a liability waiver on file so you are eligible to attend this and future field trips. A copy of the waiver will be available when you attend your first bird walk.
Upcoming Bird Walks
Saturday, May 11th -- 8:30 am. to 10:30 am - ROCKY MOUNTAIN ARSENAL
We’ll drive the 11-mile wildlife loop at the arsenal, stopping along the way to view various spots and maybe walk a trail or two. The arsenal is abundant with wildlife. Bison, deer, raptors, songbirds, waterfowl and coyotes included. We’ll meet at the visitors center and arrange a carpool to drive the loop. May is peak migration season, and the Arsenal is a great place to see all kinds of species.
Leader: TBA
Location: Meet at the Arsenal Visitors Center, 6550 Gateway Rd, Commerce City, CO.
Carpooling: If you wish to carpool from Broomfield, please indicate this when you sign up.

Monday, June 10th – 7:30 a.m to 10:30 a.m. - JUNGLE BIRDS OF BOULDER
Why fly to Belize or Costa Rica when their birds will come to us? This is an easy hike to a local birding hot-spot to search for colorful migratory songbirds newly arrived from the steamy jungles south of the border. Birdwatchers of all abilities welcome. Bring binoculars, a spotting scope if you have one, and books. (We will use Birds of Costa Rica as our guide book in the field – no joke).
Leader: Dave Sutherland
Location: Meet at the neighborhood access point to Bear Canyon trail – do a map search for 1520 Bear Mountain Drive in Boulder. Free parking is available along the street.
Carpooling: If you wish to carpool from Broomfield, please indicate this when you sign up.
The Walk is limited to 20 participants.
