BARR LAKE: A PEACEABLE KINGDOM OF FEATHERED FRIENDS

Even if you didn’t know that Barr Lake is a premier Colorado spot for bird watching, in a quick visit, you'd soon find out. To the unacquainted, Barr Lake is surrounded by giant cottonwoods and willows, which house hundreds of birds. The closer you get, the louder the broadcasting of trills, caws, chirrups, whistles and melodies. In an instant, you’ll catch twenty bird songs floating through the air—signs of abundance in a habitat that once was a buffalo wallow. Now, it’s a Colorado showpiece just outside Brighton.
