Park Ranger Monica Johnson lives and works at Cumberland Mountain State Park in Crossville, Tenn. In addition to maintaining the trails and protecting natural and cultural resources on site, she is responsible for programing and community events. For the past two years, she has been planning for an aviary to support the native Tennessee birds of prey that she has for her park programs.
Johnson is an East Tennessee representative of the Tennessee Park Rangers Association.
Those who wish to contribute to the aviary may contact Ranger Johnson at 931-484-6138 or monica.johnson@tn.gov. Checks may be written to Friends of Cumberland Mountain State Park and sent to Cumberland Mountain State Park, Attn: Bird of Prey Program, 24 Office Dr., Crossville, TN 38555.
Looking forward to my next visit there, and seeing the new Aviary. Curious as to why the Hawk is named Henson. Can you please tell me?
Thanks!
Ranger Monica Johnson said that she and Ranger Houston named the hawk Henson after the park superintendent Bob Henson.
