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.

Flat Stanley – Part II

Saturday was the Annual Shreve Migration Sensation in Shreve, Ohio. Dakota and Jennie decided to take Flat Stanley along. Guided tours, vendors, cool speakers, a photograph contest and of course an awesome Ohio Young Birder field trip make this event a great way to kick off spring migration!

Stanley loved the Beautiful Art Work

Ohio Young Birders Field Trip – Dakota went on the bus with the young birder crew in search of waterfowl and early spring migrants. The chilly weather did not stop the fun, but it was a slow birding day. Flat Stanley enjoyed himself immensely.

Stanley with his Backpack

The highlight for Flat Stanley was seeing his first SNOWY OWL. The handler was kind enough to give Stanley an up-close look.

Hoping he’s not Lunch!

All in all, it was a great outing for the Ohio Birdfreaks and their new friend Flat Stanley!

Good birding!!!

I’m new to this blog. I just created a website about bird houses for a contest at school, and I’m getting into a little amateur birding to try and share my customers passion for birds. It’s amazing to me as I’ve read your blog and some others like Bird Chick and Round Robin how much enthusiasm there is in the birding community. Keep up the fun posts. That picture of the Snowy Owl is pretty cool. Must be something else to see one in the wild. If you know of any other good birding blogs, please feel free to send them my way.
