November 2023 – Ranger Ramblings

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

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.

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

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

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

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.
