“The work at One Tam represents this really incredible cross-agency partnership,” said Jennifer Norris, executive director of the Wildlife Conservation Board, which awarded the Parks Conservancy with our One Tam partners a $4.26 million grant for forest and woodland stewardship in Marin. “It has a really strategic approach and a way of working together to get the most bang for your buck.” The grant will help One Tam implement its “Marin Regional Forest Health Strategy.”

In partnership with the Insight Garden Program, and with the assistance Shelagh Fritz, senior program manager at the Parks Conservancy, NPS Ranger Oliver Goodman has begun a new gardening program with the incarcerated women at Central California Women’s Facility.

The Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy hosted the second annual Parks4All: Pink Full Moon Stroll—a one-of-a-kind pink-out party under April's Pink Full Moon at Presidio Tunnel Tops.

Biologists from the National Park Service have turned on a live streaming public web camera featuring “Larry,” a 6-year-old peregrine falcon who built a nest several years ago on the famed 22-acre island in San Francisco Bay that was once was home to America’s toughest federal prison. The camera was set up with the help of the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy.

The Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy helped equip the new camera on Alcatraz Island to broadcast, Larry, a nickname for mama peregrine falcon Lawrencium, and her four fluffy peregrine falcon chicks in a protected cave on the island.

A pair of the fastest birds in the world are nesting on Alcatraz Island in what officials call a "tremendous conservation success" – and you can watch their family blossom live online. The Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy has launched a live stream of the nest.

In a single square acre, the Black Point historic gardens pack quite a punch of late-spring blooms. Poppies, silver bush lupine, elegant Clarkia, mustard, wild radish, yellow bush lupine and yarrow stretch out in the sun. Rock phacelia, stone crop, tidy tips and borage line the walls.

Just decades ago, peregrine falcons were largely absent from California. But now, a pair of the birds are nesting on Alcatraz Island in what officials call a "tremendous conservation success" – and you can watch their family live online.

This is the first year the public can watch the live broadcast of Larry, her unnamed partner, and her four chicks — all approaching 1-month-old and almost ready to fledge — courtesy of the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy.

A recent addition to the field is a camera trained on peregrine falcons on Alcatraz Island off the San Francisco coast. The live stream, a collaboration between the National Park Service and Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, has attracted more than 130,000 users, according to the conservancy.
