July 2023 – Ranger Ramblings

NWDC Raptor Center Director Diana Miller drew a beautiful red-tailed hawk out from a portable carrier and held it up for all to see.

Many children enjoy our camps so much that they return year after year, but it’s equally awesome having new campers join in the fun.

August 21-24 marked the return of the Outdoor Explorations Program to the NWDC River Campus for the 2023-2024 school year.

This fall, our Earth Studies students got to see incredible biodiversity firsthand on their first trip of the year to visit us!

Recent snowfall had provided a surge of moisture for the moss to absorb, leaving the north-facing wall of the canyon lush and green.

After we fed and monitored the little owlets for a few days, we moved them out to their new and temporary home.
