Gary chose to donate “Betsy” in early 2019 while he was furloughed from his government job, yet still wanted to make an impact.


“Donating a vehicle allowed me to contribute to my favorite organization, Bird Conservancy of the Rockies, while solving my problem of getting rid of Betsy – my past-her-prime ‘birding beater’ car. Betsy, a 1996 Subaru Impreza with 385,000 miles served me well and needed to permanently rest her wings. Betsy served as a mirror of my personality donning window decals reflective of my interests:  birding, music, sports. With Betsy, I used to bird every day during my commute, on weekends and even running errands. She helped me lead trips on my designed ‘Raptor Alley’ in Nunn as well as trips to Pawnee National Grassland and beyond. Betsy and I hold special birding memories like the sighting Pink-footed Goose, Kelp Gull, Gyrfalcon and Snowy Owl! I am grateful Betsy’s spirit can live on through Bird Conservancy’s Beaters for Tweeters program.”

~ Gary Lefko, aka the “Nunn Guy” in the Colorado birding world
