Birding

We love to travel to find new birds and participate in a lot of bird counts. We also created a Guide to Birding Field Guides and host a collection of over 300 birding links from all over the globe.

Conservation

While our main focus continues to be birds, we promote other areas of conservation as well. Conserving land not only benefits wildlife, but is hugely beneficial to people as well.

Outdoors

We love all sorts of outdoor activities, especially hiking and spend a lot of time outside with dogs and horses. We are working to produce more articles on all sorts of outdoor fun!

Photography

Every week we bring you Bird Photography Weekly. We periodically talk about our adventures in digiscoping. Feel free to browse our photo lifelist.

Christmas Bird Count Only 5 Days Away

Christmas Bird Counts (CBC) are getting close. The Rockford one takes place on Saturday, December 16th. I will also be doing the Kishwaukee count the Saturday after that. I plan on having a full report for both of these as well as try to post information about counts in my area – Northern Illinois / Southern Wisconsin. Fun time of year!

    You’re welcome…and thanks for the comment. It is so great how many people participate in CBCs. It makes winter birding so much more enjoyable.
