[cobirds] This Tuesday! Sandhills Wildlife Area with Boulder County Audubon

Thirty-eight years of Continuity, Change, and Wonder at a Sandhills Wildlife Area

Over four decades, Steve Jones has spent more than 300 nights camping out by himself at a State Wildlife Area in the northwestern Nebraska Sandhills. He was drawn to the Sandhills because it's the last expanse of mostly natural prairie in North America. In this State Wildlife Area alone, he's documented 124 potential breeding bird species while enjoying intimate interactions with long-eared owls, trumpeter swans, and wild turkeys.

What makes this area so unique? Join Boulder County Audubon this Tuesday for our final spring speaker program of 2023, where Steve Jones will discuss the unique natural processes in the Sandhills. Steve will also have his new book available following the program, benefiting three organizations he supports: The Trumpeter Swan Society, People of the Sacred Land, and Sandhills Prairie Refuge Association. Steve will donate the proceeds from the book to these organizations, so this is a great way to support some causes that Steve cares about. For those in-person attendees who receive a book at the program, use the links to the organizations to make your donation. If you cannot attend in person and would like to order the book, you can do so here. If you'd like to instead donate directly to these organizations, please feel free to do so!
When: Tuesday, May 23, 7:15 - 8:45 pm
Where: In person at Unitarian Universalist Church of Boulder or online via Zoom (the link will be posted at this page on the day of the program)
