The two new trail heads (TH) on the eastern part of the St. Vrain Greenway have been open for a while now. I'm not sure if the City announced this or not but I mentioned them back in January while they were under construction, and it's good to see them being used.
The first new TH you'll encounter going east from Longmont is the 119th St TH. It has a restroom, a water fountain, two covered picnic tables, and a parking lot. Yes, the water fountain is working.

About 1.3 miles further east, at Weld County Road 1, there is another new TH. This one is simply a parking lot and a picnic table; no facilities.

Heading back west to Longmont, you'll see a cluster of swallows nesting under the CO-119 bridge.
And out of nowhere, a freshly painted birdhouse along the river. Wonder where it came from?

See, birders are very civic-minded!
