Weekend Waterbirds at Prospect Lake – Saturday, November 18, 9:00 a.m.

Despite its urban location, Prospect Lake in Colorado Springs’ Memorial Park is a well-known waterbird magnet during migration and in early winter when open water remains available. With this in mind, we will meet here this morning to check the lake for ducks, geese, grebes, gulls and more – as well as the occasional raptor attracted by these birds.

Walking distance around the lake is approximately 1.25 miles. We will start from the main parking lot on the lake’s east side, off of South Union Boulevard (adjacent to the Peace Officers Memorial). Remember to bring along warm layers in the event of chilling fall breezes.

Kip Miller will lead this outing. For more information or to reserve a space, please contact Kip at hlbirdguide@gmail.com.
