Zac Cota and I talk about his adventure as a traveling nurse exploring the country, birding, working and visiting as many as possible of what he estimates to be 1508 federally preserved natural areas, including National Wildlife refuges, National Parks and Monuments, National Forests and lots more. Hear about this quest, as well as his birding story and a little about life as a travelling nurse. Enjoy.

Here is a link to the Instagram page Zac is starting to document his experiences at the conserved areas. 

Here is a link to the promised map Zac has created of all of the 1508 conserved areas.
