My Column: State Line Hawk Watch
A view of State Line Lookout and the Hudson River beyond in Alpine. By Jim WrightSpecial to The Record |…
Sibley and Peterson, move over. There's a new field guide to the birds of Dumont, N.J., produced with TLC by Mrs. Metz's recent second grade class at the Grant School in — how'd you know? — Dumont, N.J.
I can't tell you how excited I was to get my copy in the mail. I think it may well be a very limited edition, and mine was autographed by the authors.
If you would like to borrow the book for your next birding trip to Dumont, just let me know.
Thank you, Mrs. Metz and your nifty students!
What a wonderful idea!
That’s great, that the kids are learning to appreciate bird watching at a young age! Love it!
