E42 - Kathe A + Gambel's Quail & Avian Eggs
Manage episode 357772359 series 3399771
This is the final part of the 3-part series and focuses on the eggs of our avian friends. My returning guest is Kathe Anderson ( Episode 27), who is a lifelong-learner and sharer, of anything bird-related. She frequently leads field trips in the Phoenix-area and at wildlife festivals across Arizona. She participates in local survey programs and Christmas Bird Counts, along with authoring articles for local Audubon Society newsletters. Kathe also presents at festivals, like the Southeast Arizona Birding Festival, where we first met and she also presented on eggs.
