November 2023 – Ranger Ramblings

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

On the last day of camp, the campers had the honor of moving five baby owls and one adult owl to the flight cage…

While many aspects of nature slow down in the colder months, we can still observe the many creatures that are still out and about.

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

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.

In our December newsletter, read all about how NWDC’s environmental education programs take students out of their comfort zone by just traveling from the plains to the mountain foothills.
