A small (40 or so acres) open space in downtown Fountain, CO (access behind the library). Very pleasant - the stream was crystal clear - maybe a good spot to check during migration. I suspect the Kites are breeding here. Low traffic while we were there - a teenaged boy who said he was looking for Wild Turkeys with babies he'd seen another day and snakes and that he wants to be a herpetologist when he grows up, and a few high school kids jogging for cross country practice. I think it isn't a well known park.

Beautiful pictures! I am curious about this open space. Are dogs allowed on leash?
Yes, on a leash I think they are.
