June 2024 – Ranger Ramblings

A highlight of the past month for me was hiking with a group of kids from the Boys and Girls Club to the top of Lookout Point.

The Nature & Wildlife Discovery Center recently partnered with the Pueblo Zoo and the Buell Children’s Museum for nature programming.

After two days of single digit and sub-zero temperatures, a dedicated group of birding enthusiasts got outside on December 24th.

It sometimes takes awhile for students to realize the human impacts on the river, such as personal use and growing crops.

Unfortunately, most insects like moths are specialists, meaning they only eat one type of plant, and lay their eggs on these plants.

On the first day of the new year, families and nature enthusiasts embraced the outdoors and took literal steps towards a healthy lifestyle.
