Welcome to the Boulder Bird Man video blog. Steve Frye owns the Wild Bird center in Boulder. Every Saturday morning at 7:00 A.M. he leads a bird walk and talk for birder of all levels. Steve has remarkable knowledge about local birds, migrations and habitats and we are honored to have him as part of our shows here on the Channel 1 networks. Look for a new blog each month right there. Check out the Wild Bird Center website and make sure to tell Steve you saw it. For more information on the Boulder Bird Man walks email Steve: wbcboulderco@aol.com. Make sure you stop by the store too. It is the only bird store in Boulder. The staff are all birders so you’ll get your questions answered. Look for the Boulder Bird Man on our Colorado Magazine on CET channel 5/4 all over Colorado.
Steve Frye grew up in the woods of Minnesota where he began a lifelong interest in natural history, especially birds, at a very early age. After graduating from St. Olaf College with a degree in chemistry, Steve joined the Peace Corps in Kenya to teach high school science. The incredible birdlife in Africa intensified Steve’s birding zeal. Steve worked as a chemist for a short time after returning from Kenya. He eventually settled in Colorado and opened the Wild Bird Center of Boulder in January 1989. The Wild Bird Center, with the support of its customers, has provided the community with quality bird products and educational opportunities since that time. Steve married Julie Graf in 1997 and they have 2 children, Genevieve and Charlie.
