Join BCAS for a special social hour before the Night of the Condors! program.
View an art exhibit by Christina Baal. Christina has designed artwork for Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival, The Biggest Week in American Birding, the New River Birding and Nature Festival, and New Jersey Audubon’s World Series of Birding. She will be offering a curated selection of her work for sale, with proceeds benefiting BCAS.
Belted Kingfisher by Christina Baal.
Snag an early registration for 2027’s Interludes with Nature trip. Led by some of the area’s most knowledgeable naturalists and birders, these trips go places participants often do not get to see.
On offer this year you can take an up-close peek at our nocturnal neighbors on a moth trip with Pam Piombino or get to know the secrets of bats with Rick Adams. See the minute details of the birds you usually look at in binoculars during bird banding with Megan Jones Patterson and the crew at Allegra Collister Bird Banding Station. Identify and photograph the shimmering beauty of dragonflies and damselflies with Scott Severs. Or get behind-the-scenes access to the Denver Zoo’s friendly Ambassador Flock of American and Chilean Flamingos as well as an encounter with a Southern Cassowary.
Monies raised from these Interludes with Nature trips send our Teen Naturalists and other regional teens to the Hog Island birding camp in Maine. You can hear the past scholarship recipients talk about their experience on our YouTube Channel or read about their experiences on our website.
BCAS supports teens attending the National Audubon Society’s Coastal Maine Bird Studies for Teens Program at Hog Island, Maine. Learn more.
Front Range Birding & Optics will also be on hand with some of the highlights from their shop on Canyon.
Pick up a good book! There will be a table with free, used nature books. Maybe you’ll find a field guide you’ve been looking for! You are welcome to bring a field guide or other natural history book you no longer use if you so desire.
Light refreshments will be provided. Attendance at this social does not require having a ticket to the Night of the Condor! program.
