Natural History - Seniors
Join us at Walden Ponds Wildlife Habitat for a leisurely 1- to 3-mile walk on wide, flat trails as we observe signs of spring bird migration. Listen for the waterfowl and songbirds looking for their mates and preparing for summer. Keep an eye out for hunting raptors like Osprey and Bald eagles, and the scattered running of shorebirds along the pond’s edge. The pace will be set by our most curious participant, making this a relaxed and enjoyable outing for all.

I earned a BS in Zoology and did graduate work in Wildlife Management, but spent my career in IT as a programmer and network architect. Now that I am retired, I can spend more time enjoying nature. My favorite topics are wildlife, nature photography and astronomy. I am a member of the Parks and Open Space Advisory Committee.
Mary K - Volunteer Naturalist
I have worked for many years as a scientist, teacher, presenter, and medical writer, but I love learning about the outdoors and sharing what I've learned. I have also volunteered for many years as an ESL teacher (in English, with adults from countries around the world) and love working with English language learners. .
Molly G - Volunteer Naturalist
I have lived in Boulder for 45 years, and deeply love and value our open space. By profession, I am an acupuncturist and herbalist. I helped organized a non-profit, called Bee Safe Boulder. We created bee safe neighborhoods, getting folks to sign pledges not to use pesticides. Boulder, Longmont and Lafayette became Bee Safe Cities. I have also done trainings in learning how our neighborhoods can mitigate for fire danger. Being outdoors in nature is my happy place!
