Short Description of Activity

This Care Call was about how our broadbands have contributed to citizen science through their wide array of efforts with BLM, the Forest Service, and other agencies.

Reflection/Evaluation

I was unprepared to make comment on our work with our local Open Space. I did participate in the call to a slight degree. We haven’t worked in our area lately. I was trying to establish some work in April but COVID-19 came along and has halted any progress. My husband and Bro, Bob and I have made a couple trips to our Shining River site to survey what needs to be done. I hope the RGVBB can resume some agency activity this spring and summer if COVID-19 magically disappears. I have made an attempt to reach out to the Albuq. Wildlife Federation to join in their activities, but all is on hold for now. Eventually COVID will be a thing of the past and we can continue our Broadband work with various agencies.
