The Colorado Birding Challenge is a fun, county-based birding and conservation event held during the most exciting time of the birding year. The Challenge provides funds to support bird conservation projects each year.

Legendary birding hotspots such as Two Buttes and Cottonwood Canyon will likely have a mix of eastern and western warblers, specialty trips to private ranches are practically guaranteed to provide some surprises, and even birding right around Lamar will surely be excellent.

The Partners in the Outdoors Conference is an opportunity to cultivate common ground, explore best practices of partnering, and design collaborative solutions with diverse voices and stakeholders to conserve Colorado’s outdoor heritage.

Full registration for the 2024 CFO Convention ends on April 15, 2024.

This training will benefit anyone who lives in Colorado who cares about environmental conservation.

CFO donates funds each year to a conservation project impacting Colorado’s birds and bird habitats. Organizations and individuals with conservation projects impacting Colorado birds and their habitats are invited to submit proposals.
