During that time we led hundreds of day tours and field trips, taught dozens of classes, presented presentations and performed thousands of hours of wildlife research and education – and it was all great fun! Eddie and Noreen retired from leading tours in 2025 but are still very active in nature education, birding, photography and conservation in the San Francisco area.<\/p>\n
