I’ve never been an avid bird watcher, but I certainly enjoying watching any type of wildlife; including birds.  I was doing some research this weekend on local birds, including the hummingbirds that come by and visit us every year and I came across these unique activities in Colorado Springs, and thought I’d share it with our readers …………

Plan now to take advantage of the monthly bird walks at the Garden of the Gods Park.    The park staff is partnering with the American Birding Association (ABA) and is offering monthly bird walks from May to November.  

According to some information I found during my research for this blog, there have been over 170 species of birds seen in the park.   Some of the local birds found are the Spotted Towhee, Virginia’s Warbler, White-throated Swift, Prairie Falcon, and the Rock Wren.
