Rocky Mountain Birding

Rocky Mountain Birding is a Colorado-based guiding outfit run by Peter Burke, offering day trips into Rocky Mountain National Park, the Pawnee National Grassland, and the Front Range foothills in search of Colorado specialties such as Brown-capped Rosy-Finch, White-tailed Ptarmigan, and the prairie longspurs. Beyond the home state, the company runs multi-day scheduled departures to a rotating roster of classic North American birding destinations, including Sax-Zim Bog in winter, Magee Marsh during spring migration, the Florida Keys, the Texas Rio Grande Valley, the Olympic Peninsula, and Alaska, with occasional international trips to Ecuador. The focus is on small groups led personally by Peter, with itineraries built around target-driven birding for visiting listers as well as natural-history-oriented outings for travelers new to the region.
