It was a great pleasure to participated in the Christmas Bird Count for the first time this year. I had heard about the Christmas Bird Count but honestly did not think I would see any interesting birds in the middle of winter. I generally concentrate...
Early risers such as Sutton market merchants might have seen a group of six cold and wet birders roaming the streets of Sutton this morning. We were a smiling group, peering into trees with interest, inching close to people's yards and trudging through schoolyards. We...

It was a very warm morning at Huttopia with a group of 18! The highlight was the Raven’s nest with 3 ravens in it. No chicks yet but a little family gathering nonetheless. Also, we tried to find the Blackburnian warbler singing in the hemlock...
