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.

Swarovski Blogging Event Day One

I am getting ready to hang out with several bloggers from around the country and tour Swarovski Optik’s facility in Cranston, Rhode Island. So far our trip out here has been great, including a few life birds (more about them later!) and several states I’ve never been to before (including Rhode Island).

Here’s a view we had from Fort Adams State Park yesterday with the bridge from Newport to Jamestown, Rhode Island in the background.

I’ll post more info about our travels in the upcoming days (weeks?) as today will be busy and tomorrow we are going on an all-day field trip in Massachusetts to look for terns and shorebirds.

Fingers crossed for a rarity!
