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.

Beautiful capture. This year was my first year to encounter this woodpecker twice. I guess when you get involved in birding (since 2007), birds just appear front of you – and that is what happened to me last year. Very nice blog you have here, Anna

Zen Birdfeeder – Thanks much!!
Anna – Thank you; every time we find a Pileated it creates a feeling of excitement!!
Lana – we share that love!!
Wren – thanks; the PW provided a great opportunity for a photo

Moe – thank you very much!!
Trixie – thanks; we love sharing (even if it isn’t that great of a shot)
Karl C. – thanks much!!
Larry – First time having a Pileated fly directly overhead… it was a great thrill!!
