Saturday Field Trip - Vulture Watch Training (10 a.m. April 5th)

Our April 5th field trip will be a combination of inside/lecture format and vulture-focused birding on the University of Wyoming Campus as we attend the Vulture Watch Wyoming training session.  

Each year in early to mid-April, Turkey Vultures arrive in Laramie after migrating from wintering grounds in Central and South America.  They have a communal roost located on the University of Wyoming campus (adjacent to Old Main), which they use until migrating back to their winter grounds in September and October. 

There is much to learn about roost dynamics, breeding behavior, and how they interact with their habitat! The Laramie Audubon Society encourages our members and friends to attend this training and participate in this community science program. Training will take place from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the University of Wyoming's Berry Center building (Room 217 - Teaching Lab) and outside on campus.
