Discover Wild Colorado

Welcome to Colorado County Birding--a website by the birders of Colorado, for the birders of Colorado--as well as for birders visiting from elsewhere. Here you'll find site descriptions and checklists for every county, plus information on habitats, hazards, access to sites and specialty species. Whether you are a native or a visitor, we hope this site will help you plan trips to find the birds you are looking for. More importantly, we hope it will encourage you to explore new corners of this marvelous state, to add to our existing knowledge of Colorado birds and their distributions, and to support rural economies.

This website would not be the amazing resource that it is without the efforts of many contributors, and it will not remain vibrant and up-to-date without frequent additions, deletions and revisions--so if you know something about Colorado birding that we don't know, please drop us a line.

Good Birding!
