This year I completed the Juneau County Advanced Leadership program, meeting a diverse array of professionals and learning about the many resources available to support communities in Juneau county! @UWMadisonExtNRI

@uphamwoods1941 was excited to give our Extension colleagues a taste of the "Monitoring Aquatic Invasive Species Using eDNA" project at the @UWMadisonExt All Colleague Conference last week! Even Bucky got into the biotech equipment identification! @UWiscSeaGrant

Just in time for #CitizenScienceSaturday! It was a great day learning about coastal prairie ecosystem restoration at the University of Houston Coastal Center, including removing the invasive Chinese tallow, Sapium sebiferum https://t.co/gx2AyVDkgq

I am so excited to be working on this project with a great team from @uwgenetics, @UWMadisonExtNRI Water Action Volunteers, @UWMadisonExt 4-H program, and the Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center/USGS!

@WAEE40 fall conference participants pilot tested the "Monitoring Aquatic Invasive Species Using Environmental DNA (eDNA)" project last month, collecting and filtering river samples and simulating laboratory analysis! This project is funded by @UWiscSeaGrant and @UWMadisonExt

What an amazing @waee40 fall conference at @uphamwoods1941! These gorgeous shots of the Wisconsin river are from the 50th anniversary reunion paddle last week. The river was like a glass mirror - just magical! #WAEE50 #waee2024 #WIEnviroEd

I am delighted to have completed the Ho Chunk Wisconsin Master Naturalist Program along with three of my colleagues from the @UWMadisonExtNRI, and look forward to continuing to volunteer with the Ho Chunk Nation DNR! #WisconsinMasterNaturalist

😊 I don't cry often, but I was *almost* moved to tears by a former Baraboo High School student's letter recommending me for an "Influential Educator Award" for inspiring her to begin the journey to become a classroom teacher. ☺️

[Amy Workman @AmyWorkUW]

@UWMadisonExtNRI Congratulations Becky! @uphamwoods1941 was so pleased to host a Master Naturalist class through the program this year!

The @theraptorcenter workshop included the basics of first aid care like wrapping injured feet, clipping talons, "coping" (trimming overgrowth on beaks), and separating talons (we practiced on study mounts). What a great experience! #raptorambassadors

[Amy Workman @AmyWorkUW]

I was thrilled to participate in the Care & Management of Captive Raptors workshop put on by @theraptorcenter! I handled a kestrel, owl, red tailed hawk, and bald eagle, plus learned multiple new training techniques. It was a fantastic experience! #raptorambassadors

Please pass on this opportunity at Upham Woods planned by Hard of Hearing youth for those interested in teaching and learning about communicating through American Sign Language (ASL)!
