Massive Fish Die-off @ Celery Farm
A huge thank you to the volunteers who pitched in today to remove all those dead fish from the Celery…

On Tuesday, I wrote about two new books by Florence McBride that celebrate the Birds of Connecticut exhibit at Yale's Peabody Museum of Natural History — an exhibit cut short by Covid-19.
The exhibit featured the brilliant taxidermic work of David H. Parsons.
Florence was nice enough to share a photo of Parsons, along with an article by Ruth Billard Morrill in Taxidermy Today (Winter, 1989) about him and his work.
