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 are working to promote other areas of conservation. 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.

The Big Year Movie

The birding community is excited, and rightfully so, for the upcoming movie, The Big Year. Based on Mark Obmascik’s 1998 book The Big Year: A Tale of Man, Nature, and Fowl Obsession, it looks to be extremely funny and perhaps a push for birding (and conservation) to move into the mainstream.

The movie’s cast is solid and said to be the following:
Steve Martin as Al Levantin
Jack Black as Greg Miller
Owen Wilson as Sandy Komito
Rashida Jones
Angelica Huston as Debi Shearwater
Jim Parsons
Rosamund Pike
JoBeth Williams
Brian Dennehy
Dianne Wiest
Anthony Anderson
Tim Blake Nelson
Kevin Pollak
Joel McHale

No official release date is set yet but it is being filmed now. Check out some photos released from the set.

We’ll be posting updates right here as we get them . . . perhaps we’ll even make it to the premiere :)
