The Call of the Cranes
I never saw myself as someone who could make an impact on birds or the environment. Birds were my hobby, not my field of expertise or my profession. And for most of my life, I was certainly not an activist or an organizer. But then the cranes found me, called to me, and I could not resist that call.
Soaring Through Summer
Each summer, campers gather from along the Front Range of Colorado to experience the magic that is Bird Camp! Weekly sessions run Monday through Friday, roughly from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. and serve ages 4-17. As the season starts, we kick off with Birding Adventure Camp in early June.
