OA Alumni Highlight! 📸🌻☀️🚲

Micheal Forsberg, nature photographer and former OA student, has been pedaling across the Great Plains from Texas to Canada with Andy Caven, the director of central flyway programs at the International Crane Foundation, to observe and photograph the whooping crane migration.

They’ve covered over 2000 miles so far, all with the goal of highlighting these beautiful and rare birds, as well as the habitat loss the Great Plains migration path is experiencing.

Follow this link to the Nebraska Today article to learn more about this duo! Outdoor Adventures is proud to highlight the passion and accomplishments of its former students!
