In September 2025, SABO partnered with explore.org to install live wildlife cameras at Ash Canyon Bird Sanctuary. The cameras are operated by staff and volunteers from SABO and explore.org, and viewers from all over the world can tune in 24 hours a day to watch the action at two of the sanctuary’s feeding stations.
