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.

It’s Raining Warblers at Magee Marsh

One of the most popular places to see warblers during the Biggest Week in American Birding is the Magee Marsh boardwalk. It is the final place for all sorts of migratory birds to stop and rest before their journey across Lake Erie into their nesting habitats.

The Magee Marsh boardwalk is epic for both amateur and professional photographers! Here are a few shots I, Dakota, was able to get during the Biggest Week. This is just a fraction of what can and is being seen out there.

Prothonotary Warbler

Black-throated Blue Warbler

Quite envious on all those nice warblers. I’d love to see a Prothonotary Warbler one day.

Thanks from Dakota – he had a lot of opportunities to photograph warblers on the boardwalk. It is an amazing place that even though crowded during migration…it is crowded with people just like us!

Gunner – Magee Marsh in May is a GREAT place to get wonderful views of the Prothonotary Warbler.
