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.

Waterfowl Featured on Duck Stamps


1992-1993 stamp featuring Spectacled Eider

The Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp has been in place for 75 years, starting back in the 1934-1935 season with a Mallard. Since then, the stamp has changed a lot in quality and price. But one thing that has not changed is that 98% of the cost of the stamp goes to conservation, a truly remarkable thing.

Some facts:
