JoAnn,
The eBird hotspot named "Kinney Run Trail" is indeed an important birding
area in Golden,
with 96 species of birds seen there in the past few years, since records
have been kept.
This represents a great many sightings of individual birds and is a
reflection of the rich
avifauna of the area.
Is anyone familiar with birding on Kinney Run Trail and Open Space in Golden?
It is listed as an e-bird hotspot. Apparently the city of Golden wants to turn
it into a mountain biking park and trail. Some birders have contacted me to
help protest it on behalf of Evergreen Audubon. Please let us
