Josh and the facilities team have made amazing progress so far and we wanted to share it with you!

The steep hill is becoming a thing of the past. The top of the hill is now much easier to walk and roll on.

We’re proud with all of the progress that has been made by this team and excited to see what happens next.

Check back in a couple weeks for more updates!

And in the meantime, why not donate to make our Education Pavilion more accessible?

This year, we got the opportunity to re-nest a nestling Acorn Woodpecker! He was displaced from his nest when a power pole was cut down. Luckily, he was uninjured, and KND Services were happy to help us get him back home!

Because the original nest was destroyed, we decided to install a woodpecker nest box on a nearby pole; as close to the original nest location as possible.

He will be learning to fly soon; but we still prioritize getting them back home…wildlife parents will always be the best teachers. Luckily, his mom was nearby waiting!

It’s time for a site improvement update!

Josh Smith with Northwest Woodland Services, Inc.
is hard at work creating more accessible trails.

After working on a new pedestrian path, he moved to the top of the hill.

All of the resident avian ambassadors on that side have moved to temporary houses.

We’re grateful for all of the work that has been put in by Josh and the Facilities team on this project and we’re excited to see what’s next.

October is coming up soon as well as our Raptor Brew Fest and other offsite programs. Keep your eye out for more updates!
