The Big Dead-Fish Clean-Up
A huge thank you to the volunteers who pitched in yesterday to remove all those dead fish from the Celery…
My column for The Record today is all about the Christmas Bird Count, which can start nationwide as early as tomorrow.
The column, which is on the front of the Better Living section, feature a wonderful photo of a Pine Siskin by Barbara Dilger, who also provided an online photo gallery of winter birds, and a nifty photo of an Evening Grosbeak at Scherman Hoffman, by Robert Lin. (Thanks, Barbara and Robert!)
The image I sent in that The Record did not run is the above shot I took of this sloppy eater. Can you I.D. her? (Photographed on Saturday in the Celery Farm.)
Three local circles are conducting their counts this weekend.
