Join Evergreen Audubon and Mountain Area Land Trust (MALT) for a first-of-its-kind bird counting event in Fairplay!

This survey will help uncover the diversity of bird species in Colorado’s South Park region. Birds help us understand how healthy our environment is, and by collecting data, we can learn how to better protect them and our local ecosystems; but we need your help to make this happen!

Spend the morning with experienced birders as we count as many birds as we can. There will be two groups: one at MALT’s Sacramento Creek Ranch and another at MALT’s Pennsylvania Mountain. Following the survey, birders will meet up to share findings and exploration stories from the morning.. Success of this community-science event depends on your participation! Rally your friends, family, and fellow birders for this exciting Bio-Blitz event!

What to bring:

  • Binoculars – Evergreen Audubon has a limited quantity of spare binoculars to lend out. They are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
  • Weather appropriate clothes for a morning outside
  • Comfortable hiking shoes
  • Water
  • Optional: Snack

This event is being held at Mountain Area Land Trust’s beautiful Sacramento Creek Ranch in Fairplay.
