Upland Bird Hunting Near Colorado Springs?

[gloriavoxdei]

I live west of Colorado Springs and I was wondering what kind of birds there are near here for hunting (not pheasants). I used to quail and dove hunt in CA but since moving here have not gotten familiar with anything but big game. The bird hunting bug is starting to get me this year so do any of you guys have any sugestions?

There's a very large walk-in area down by Pueblo that had a great amount of doves last year. Its on the walk-in brochure published through department of wildlife, and also in an online downloadable form. Let me see if I still have it around here....

Here is the main site: http://wildlife.state.co.us/Hunting/SmallGame/WalkInAccess/

and the walk-in atlas in electronic form: oops, looks like its not published for this year yet, but it will be available on that page I posted. Look for it in a couple months. There are some pretty nice big tracts of land down around there that are public access.

Hope this helps
