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…
If you are in the neighborhood of Wild Birds Unlimited on Thursday evening between 6:30 and 8 p.m, stop by and say hi. I will be hanging out (and binocular shopping).
The nice people there are selling "Hawk Mountain" books, Celery Farm coffee-table books, and Jerry Barrack's "Birds of the Celery Farm."
Also for sale, with the proceeds going to the Lillian and Stiles Thomas Scholarship Fund at Northern Highlands: Celery Farm calendars, "Swan Babies" and "Icky the Hungry Heron."
I can sign and inscribe any or all — nice holiday presents, locally written and photographed.
Thanks to all who have supported the scholarship fund thus far!
