Winter birds in Colorado

Colorado's dramatic elevation range from plains to 14,000-foot peaks creates diverse birding across life zones. During winter, bird activity is shaped by winter residency, irruptions, and energy conservation along the Central Flyway.

Where to look

Observation timing

Birds often feed actively after sunrise and before dusk. Sheltered edges and open water can concentrate activity.
