Discover the quiet beauty of the shortgrass prairie, one of Boulder County's native ecosystems. Along with rainforests, prairies are our most important carbon-sequestration communities. They are home to threatened species such as black-footed ferrets, burrowing owls, and ferruginous hawks, as well as bison, elk, deer, pronghorn, prairie dogs, box turtles, and rattlesnakes.

CancelI enjoy learning and playing in the wonders of our natural environment. Topics that interest me are: wildlife, pollinators, plants, wildflowers, bird watching, hiking and natural history.
As a Colorado transplant from New England, our beautiful environment inspires me to explore our history, geography, native wildlife, plants, and natural resources. I enjoy spending time in my community with people of all ages, making connections between our ecosystems and our daily lives, and connecting the past with the present and future.
I am a recently retired academic editor who has lived in Boulder County for 55 years. I’m an avid xeriscape and native-plant gardener, and I love exploring our wild lands by foot, bike, and skis.
