Donald the birder's blog: February 2014
http://donaldthebirder.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Donald the birder's blog. I am a birder, so this blog is of my birding adventures. Monday, February 10, 2014. Birding, in black and white. Well, there are still reports coming in of local Snowy Owls, however they seem to be one hit wonders. Many birders have gone out looking for them, only to not find anything. This late in the invasion, that would make sense, as any snowy still down this far south would likely be in grave condition. It is coming very close! What a beautiful duck! And as if this wasn't c...

A log of natural events, natural history and nature-based philosophy. Monday, August 10, 2015. Yesterday afternoon, my wife spotted a walking stick on the ceiling of our back porch, a special treat for our two grandsons. Not always so easy to find (due to their excellent camouflage) stick insects are primarily nocturnal and are best observed at dawn or dusk. Sunset, Pacific Coast. The Freedom of Naturalism.

Nature's Blog: Up River with Lewis & Clark
http://naturesblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/up-river-with-lewis-clark.html
A log of natural events, natural history and nature-based philosophy. Sunday, August 2, 2015. Up River with Lewis and Clark. Having lived within the Missouri River watershed for much of my life (along the Colorado Front Range and in Columbia, Missouri), I decided it was time to read The Journals of Lewis and Clark. Not interested in wading through the official volumes, I chose the version edited by Bernard DeVoto, first published in 1953. Sunset, Pacific Coast. The Freedom of Naturalism. Skink in a Basket.

Nature's Blog: North through Appalachia
http://naturesblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/north-through-appalachia.html
A log of natural events, natural history and nature-based philosophy. Saturday, July 25, 2015. Further north, after we crossed the Muskingum and Tuscarawa Rivers, the Plateau has a more open feel. Here the Pleistocene Glaciers eroded the landscape, diminishing the relief between the ridges and valleys. Inclined toward broad vistas, I find this area more appealing. Sunset, Pacific Coast.

Donald the birder's blog. I am a birder, so this blog is of my birding adventures. Saturday, June 06, 2015. Big Money and East Fork SP. By now, most readers have probably heard about the Eastern Corridor Project. Clermont County has recently become an urban county. What does this mean you ask? I can see where these funds would be used to build facilities at East Fork SP. Here is the original proposal from 2007 to the Clermont County Office of Economic Development:.

Donald the birder's blog. I am a birder, so this blog is of my birding adventures. Monday, May 19, 2014. American Avocet - life bird, finally! When my girlfriend and I first pulled up, I saw a couple looking out over the water. I pulled off the road and got out of the car and found the bird quickly. It was very far away. Since I had my scope stolen, I really couldn't get a good look at it. I thought dang. I need to just keep waiting. I am glad I did. Here it comes! What an awesome bird! I got to thinking...
