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.

Phriday Photo – Sleeping Like a Baby (Owl)

Great Horned Owl
This is one of the three Montgomery family Great Horned owlets. The family was raised on the Northern Illinois University campus in DeKalb, Illinois in early 2007.

A wise old owl sat upon an oak
The more he saw the less he spoke
The less he spoke the more he heard
Why aren’t we like that wise old bird?
- Edward Hersey Richards, “A Wise Old Owl”
