Catching Up

This fall I am working in Maine on the Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge.  The project will involve mist netting for migrant songbirds, and I hope to share more of this season than I've been keeping up with in the past couple years.  I am sleeping in a tent, and living out of a trailer on the point of the refuge, so my access to internet is limited to visits into town.  However, I am trying to write in my free time, so that I can come back and type it up to share.  I think I will also be expanding out of just bird and birding related photos, especially to share the beauty of the places I am working and visiting.  For now, here are some photos from the past few months!
