		<description><![CDATA[One of the best things I&#8217;ve been lucky enough to be involved in, for the past few years, is the Raptor Monitoring program of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP.) With conservation efforts, raptors have been recovering in Colorado, and even the re-introduced Peregrine Falcons (PEFA) are gaining in numbers. Volunteers (like me) monitor the [...]]]></description>

With all the snow we&#8217;ve had I&#8217;ve not been as active as normal, and I made a rookie mistake and forgot my camera (these are iPhone photos), although luckily I had my binoculars. I went looking for mountain lion (I can dream ) and once the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Elk moving down from the hills around Golden Colorado have had suffered a roadkill problem for a while. These negative human-wildlife interactions cause significant vehicle damage (even injury/death) for the human, and even more significant injury (almost hopefully quick death) for the wildlife. Signs didn&#8217;t work (enough) For years there have been &#8220;massive signs&#8221; saying watch for wildlife, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I should be feeling for the lemmings and not just the Snowy Owls because a population decline in one, becomes a tough time for the other, and so both are suffering.
