Horned Grebe at the Celery Farm
My first ever here. And the spring arrivals are arriving! The grebe was No. 186 on my Celery Farm life…
Two decades ago, Jerry Barrack and I joined forces to create "In the Presence of Nature," better known as simply "The Celery Farm Book."
I wrote the text, and Jerry provided the photos. Doug Goodell contributed as well.
For the Fyke Nature Association's March meeting, Jerry and I are showing images from the book — highlighting what's changed and what has remained the same (including a classic photo from the old Hour on the Tower, above).
The talk is free and open to the public.

Since mid-2015, Fyke's monthly speaker presentations have been funded by a generous grant from the Winifred M. and George P. Pitkin Foundation.
