Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! Patti Blumin, Len Blumin, Don Reinberg, and Leslie Flint are the "Bluebirds" for the 2009 PRBO Bird-A-Thon.

Peregrine Falcons were once endangered by human activity, when  widespread use of DDT caused decreased breeding success in many avian species. Peregrines have since made a good recovery and now seen widely.. Rich Stallcup found these Peregrine chicks for our group on a visit to Pt. Reyes "Outer Point", where Rich cut his "birding teeth" as a younster some decades ago.

Rich went on to help found the Pt. Reyes Bird Observatory, which started as a spartan outpost in the hinterlands, and has grown through the years to become a leading player in Conservation Science.
