[cobirds] Upper Texas Coast trip with Boulder Co. Audubon

This trip is offered through Boulder County Audubon's, "Interludes With Nature" series of special fundraising outings.  The monies raised are used to support scholarships for our Teen Naturalist Program.  Each year, we send 2-3 promising young naturalists to National Audubon's Hog Island Camp off the coast of Maine, where luminaries such as Kenn Kaufman and Scott Weidensaul lead seminars.
