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. 

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 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.

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 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.”
