Autumn EcoAlerts
Four reminders for you to look high, low and in between as you walk the cold, soggy paths this weekend.
Got Geese?
Now that Snow Geese are returning to Vermont, track the migration with my 2016 Snow Goose Scoop. It’s one-stop shopping for the great white goose show.
Insects in Vermont Today – Naked in Norway on Wednesday
Tune in at noon today (Tuesday) for insects, and meet me and Ruth Wednesday for wildlife above the Arctic Circle.
Crap or Moth?
Droppings from nature.
The Other Fireworks
Bursts of color and flight from the wilds of Maine and here in Montpelier, Vermont.
Into the Wild (and Away from the Screen)
I now get to go outside and play — er, I mean work. My field season, as a consulting biologist and educator, launches like migrating warblers this week, which means you’ll find me less often here on the blog.
Ghosts and Tiny Treasures — My Essay for Aeon
Ten years ago, I walked into the swamps of Arkansas to find a ghost — and perhaps some redemption for wildlife … and for us.
Spring Creepers
Pity the brown creeper. A prisoner of the forest, the creeper seems unable to escape the gravitational pull of the tree trunk on which it creeps, ever upward, gleaning insects, spiders, and their eggs along the way. Or might it, actually, fly free and far?
What’s This? No. 25
Ending yet another all-too-long hiatus, my What’s This? nature challenge is back. Name it and be eligible to win $5 off any of my nature outings or workshops.
“Mexicans” Across the Border
Here along the Rio Grande, wildlife knows no international borders. Here’s a damselfly, a butterfly and a bird with Mexican roots (and namesakes).
Life in Flight in the Rio Grande Valley
A sampling of life on the wing here in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. Many of these butterflies, in profile, are no bigger than a nickle or so (but they are indeed priceless).
The Year in Flight
2015 is so almost over. It’s nearly history. So rather than offering you the predictable year-in-review, here’s 2016 in Preview — some of the life in flight that I expect to see in the new year. You might see it as well if you join me outside for a field trip or a seminar.
