It's a quiet time of year for the Nearby Nature Project - no gardening, not many birds, so mostly observing the ebb and flow of the winter season. But I did attend a virtual screening of a wonderful short film about our beautiful turquoise mountain lakes. And I report on my limited participation in the 2024 Great Backyard Bird Count.
This installment of the Nearby Nature Project covers a couple aspects of our recent trip to Antarctica, a bit of reflection on 2023 and some ideas for 2024.
This edition of the Nearby Nature Project includes a couple of special bird sightings in the Bow Valley, observations on the change from fall to winter, and a book review!
Autumn is my favorite time of the year. It's garden harvest time, the deciduous trees put on a colorful show and birds are migrating. What a wonderful time to explore nearby Nature.
This instalment of the Nearby Nature Project touches on policy-making as a means to address biodiversity loss and garden "pests." I also share some birdwatching highlights, gardening successes and some cute backyard visitors.
