Opportunities to learn hawk identification and conservation

[Sharon]

Denver Field Ornithologists is offering five ways to learn about raptors in October and November. On October 9 DFO is hosting Nature's Educators in person with eight live raptors at the Denver Audubon Center near Chatfield State Park from 1-3 PM. Get the details and sign up here if you are a member of DFO. If you are not a member, sign up here. There is a modest cost to attend. 

The following programs are free and offered via Zoom. Members and non-members alike can sign up here. 

On October 12, David Hill will present his hawk ID program at 7 PM.

On November 17, David Suddjian will drop a Bird Bomb program on Forest Hawks at 7 PM.

On November 28 at 7 PM, Emma Riley, the hawk watch counter at DFO's spring count at Dinosaur Ridge will present Hawk Watch 2022: Looking Back and Looking Forward. 

Finally, on October 15, participants in either the October 9 or the October 12 program will be invited to a field trip to Dinosaur Ridge to put their skills to the test.  

This is a great season to learn about hawks that migrate through the Denver area and consider volunteering for Hawk Watch at Dinosaur Ridge this spring. We hope to see you there!
