Kelby Ouchley



I have not yet met Mr. Ouchley but have heard of him from several people here in Monroe, LA.  Below is the introduction on his website and included on the website are the subjects of his stories on KEDM which are very interesting to read or to listen to.  

My name is Kelby Ouchley.  I am a naturalist and worked as a biologist, federal game warden, and manager of National Wildlife Refuges for 30 years, mostly in Louisiana.  Since retiring I have continued my efforts to promote conservation ethics and education through my writings and speaking venues.  I have written and narrated a weekly natural history radio program for the public radio station that serves the Ark-La-Miss area (KEDM 90.3 FM) since 1995.  You can listen to some of my audio stories here: http://www.kedm.org/audio/bayou-diversity.  A while back I received the Governor’s Conservationist of the Year award from the Louisiana Wildlife Federation.  I live with my wife Amy in north Louisiana on the edge of the D’Arbonne Swamp in a cypress house surrounded by white oaks and black hickories.
