Video producer and OWAA member Carol Lynde was recently honored with three Emmy Awards from the Rocky Mountain Southwest Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
Lynde took home the Emmy in the “Environmental Program” category for her documentary “Eagle Nest Reborn”. The video follows the three-year effort of Arizona Game and Fish biologists to save a breeding pair of bald eagles after their nest became infested with ticks and had to be destroyed to protect future bald eagle nestlings.

Lynde also won two Emmy for her video, “Moving Bighorn Sheep”. The Arizona Wildlife Views story won in the “Environmental Program Segment” category and for “Direction, Post-Production”. The winning story chronicled the huge effort taken to relocate 30 desert bighorn sheep from the hills around Canyon Lake to the Mineral Mountains near Florence, Arizona.
