Foothills Audubon October Meeting: Raptor Monitoring in Longmont

[Kat Bradley-Bennett]

Foothills Audubon Bird Club's October meeting is Tuesday, October 12 at 7:00 PM.

This month's speaker is Scott Severs,  Senior Wildlife Technician for the City of Longmont, who will speak about the city's raptor monitoring program and other volunteer opportunities for birders.  

The City of Longmont’s raptor monitoring program is designed to determine the current state of local raptor populations and to provide a historical record of raptor presence or absence throughout the city. The program provides the public volunteer opportunities to learn about local wildlife while helping staff gain insight and build working relationships with community members through their nest observation. Natural resource managers, park planners, and other city employees use the information to better understand raptor population health, level of sensitivity towards human presence/disturbance, and spatial and temporal activity.
