Trying to find something on the blog — an upcoming walk, a certain photographer’s photos, posts on Muskrats, sightings of a favorite raptor?

Don’t forget that you can search 5 years of blog posts by using the Google search engine in the upper-right part of the blog. Let the searches begin.

The Ridgefield Monk Parakeet population seemed huge — up to 50 birds when we visited on Friday. Someone is ground-feeding the birds, for better or worse.

The birds are everywhere around the railroad bridge — but you’ll probably hear them before you see them. They are that loud.
