Things are always hopping at the Raptors of the Rockies organization. We're taking care of the birds and maintaining their enclosures, we're conducting raptor programs at local schools and organizations across Western Montana, art is flying out of the studio, we're taking photos and shooting video, we're out in the field birding and/or doing research, and much, much more. To help you keep up with the flurry of activities happening at Raptors of the Rockies, we're blogging on a more-or-less daily basis and our most recent posts are listed below. Enjoy! Visit our blog Mail - Day 3 Posted: Sun, 16 Nov 2025 A Raptor Round-Up Newsletter takes almost a week to write, then print 300 in living color (thanks Minuteman Press!) then fold 200, stick on addresses, draw a little hawk face on each, print and add a little color card for many, then tape shut. Stamp. Easy. Day 3 and Sonora the Aplomado Falcon helping me today. How 20th Century, I am told. Our Heron Posted: Sat, 15 Nov 2025  In a little stretch before a flight. Falconers call this a "warble" for some reason. Not a warbler here! Mose Today!

Fun with Sonora the Aplomado, Simon and Little Billie the owls, and Nigel the Golden Eagle on his best behavior. Thanks Cathy Scholtens for giving me a hand and taking this photo. Birds, anatomy, drawing, painting and printmaking - Bev Beck Glueckert at the helm! Another one of these soon.
