Colorado Field Trip Workshop Series: Hummingbirds (and more!) in Mancos, CO

Numerous hummingbird feeders are maintained at this 37-acre private property in Mancos set in pinyon pine and juniper habitat. All are welcome. No prior knowledge of skills required; questions welcomed. We will focus on identification of all four regularly occurring hummingbird species in Colorado. Other species we expect to see include: Western and Mountain bluebirds, Western Wood-Pewee, Ash-throated Flycatcher, Mountain Chickadee, Violet-green Swallow, Hairy Woodpecker, Black-headed Grosbeak, Juniper Titmouse, House Finch, White-breasted Nuthatch, Woodhouse’s Scrub-Jay, Mourning Dove, Chipping Sparrow, Spotted Towhee, Lesser Goldfinch, Clark’s Nutcracker, and Plumbeous Vireo.
