What is COBIRDS?

COBIRDS is an e-mail discussion list maintained by the CU-Boulder computer system and is available free to anyone with an interest in Colorado's birds.  (For those people already familiar with BIRDCHAT or BIRDWEST, COBIRDS is a similar e-mail list restricted to matters of Colorado interest.)  COBIRDS may be used to share sightings, announce workshops, field trips, meetings, and other such opportunities of interest to subscribers.  COBIRDS is a project of the Colorado Field Ornithologists designed to facilitate electronic communication within Colorado's birding community. The list owner is Bill Kaempfer.
