The tiny town of Karval, Colorado is gearing up now for the 15th annual Mountain Plover Festival.  Karval is a small town on the eastern plains.  The Mountain Plover makes its nest in this area, they are about the size of a robin and they are hard to see.  The festival is three days and the main goal is to see a plover but also a chance to see Eastern Colorado.  They have seen up to 70 different types of birds during the festival.  You can attend for just one day and reservations are required.  The festival is April 28th-30th.
