VIRTUAL - Bosque del Apache and the Rio Grande Corridor with Bill Gette

Thursday, January 127:00—8:00 PMVirtual

Bill Gette, Founding Director of Mass Audubon’s Joppa Flats Education Center in Newburyport, led twelve January travel programs to El Paso, Texas, and along the Rio Grande River to Albuquerque, New Mexico. His itinerary included many of the most productive wildlife viewing venues and most beautiful scenic areas in New Mexico (e.g., Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, Organ Mountains, Sandia Crest). During his presentation, Bill will show you his photographs of the diverse habitats he has visited (e.g., Chihuahuan Desert, riparian areas along the Rio Grande, mountain forests) and describe the beautiful wildlife he encountered. You will see desert specialties of the Chihuahan Desert, shorebirds in Rio Bosque Wetlands Park, songbirds in the Organ Mountains, and tens of thousands of Snow and Ross’s geese at Bosque del Apache. Bill will also take you on a photographic tour of the Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument sites at Abo and Quarai.
