Re: [cobirds] Re: Interpretation of state-wide Public Health Order

Hello, respectfully, my interpretation is traveling to a different region of 
Colorado is completely allowed, granted it is by oneself and you keep distance 
between anyone you encounter. Obviously, out of state birding is risky and not 
recommended at this point. States are considering border closures which would 
make interstate travel impossible anyway. But I'm pretty sure your allowed to 
travel anywhere within Colorado (except I believe Gunnison county's borders are 
closed), just put distance between yourself and others. I think day trips are 
recommended though. Hotels and campgrounds are mostly closed and would be a 
risk of acquiring/spreading the virus.

I was not aware of that restriction. I thought you could travel anywhere to 
exercise, which includes birding. I thought that's why the state parks were 
still open. 
So people in the mountains can't go to the plains, and vice versa? Like how far 
away from your town can you go? I've seen nothing about that. 
I stay sooo far away from people all the time, and I have left the city 
limits.

Re: [cobirds] Re: Interpretation of state-wide Public Health Order

[Allison Hilf]

My understanding is same, BUT travel to different regions in state is
prohibited.  E.g. people from Denver are not permitted to drive to the
mountains to go birding; nor are they  permitted to drive to  El Paso
County to look for a bird, regardless of social distancing.   Birding at
local parks is permitted but they want people to try and stay in their
local communities and parks when pursuing outdoor activities such as
birding.

As someone who is immunocompromised and still enjoys watching bird behavior
from my yard, it is possible to stay in your local neighborhood and/or
parks for the sake of those of us who are at greatest risk from COVID-19.

Safe birding to all,
