https://forestandfield.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-wee-lassie.html
In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. In the early 1880s a shoemaker from Wellsboro, Pennsylvania made a series of canoe trips in New York’s Adirondack Mountains. Adopting the pen name “Nessmuk” he wrote articles and books about his trips. One of his books, “ Camping and Woodcraft. 8221;, is still in print. Built in 1883, may be the best canoe ever designed. From The Adirondack Museum. I have a Wee Lassie-style canoe built. When all the st...

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Migrants are arriving regularly now as the season progresses. On a large pond there was a flock of Canada geese that numbered well over one hundred; but more interesting were the tundra swans, seven in number. As a red-tailed hawk circled overhead –. All of the geese took to the air –. Leaving the pond to the swans –. And one lone male ring-necked duck. Wednesday, March 18, 2015. The Waterfowl Are Back.

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, August 26, 2015. Checked the camera traps behind the house a couple of days ago. There were photographs of the white-tailed deer that have been hanging around the house feeding on apples fallen from the apple tree and plants in the garden. And a young buck has been hanging around with them –. Our neighbor the gray fox has been coming by almost every night –. Links to this post. Wednesday, August 19, 2015. Before moto...

In Forest and Field: At The Inlet
https://forestandfield.blogspot.com/2015/05/at-inlet.html
In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Two weeks ago I set a camera trap at the inlet of a large pond in hopes of getting photographs of wood ducks. Well, it didn’t catch wood ducks – but it got a pretty nice variety of wildlife. A great blue heron visited the inlet –. It (or another great blue) was back at dawn the next morning –. A Canada goose and its goslings also visited the inlet –. And then waded across the inlet –. Cant be bad to tha...

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Thursday, September 25, 2014. Every once in a while I’m fortunate enough to see something interesting on seven consecutive days – if I don’t it’s not because there aren’t a lot of interesting things to see every day, instead it's because I’m not out in forest or field or I’m not observant enough to see those things. Recently, lady luck smiled and I had one of those good weeks –. Today it was perched in a dead ash tree that was ...

In Forest and Field: November 2014

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Sunday, November 30, 2014. It's Time For A Change! For more than a century hunters and trappers have funded the state’s wildlife. Often overlooked, however, is the fact that wildlife is a public resource which, in essence, belongs to all the citizens of Pennsylvania whether they are hunters, non-hunters or anti-hunters – whether they are interested in white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, Allegheny woodrats or blue-headed vire...

https://forestandfield.blogspot.com/2015/08/at-inlet-ii.html
In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. At The Inlet II. Earlier this year I set a camera trap and posted the first two weeks results here. Things have quieted down now that the height of summer has arrived, but the camera has gotten some good photos nonetheless. Walking in to check the camera, I passed a log that had been torn apart by a bear seeking the insects inside -. A fawn had crossed the inlet –. August 7, 2015 at 10:35 PM. August 1...

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Saturday, July 26, 2014. We took our youngest granddaughter down to the berry farm along the river to pick blueberries. To me, blueberries are one of the finest fruits – blueberry pancakes, blueberry cake, blueberry muffins, blueberries in a salad, blueberry preserves, blueberries by the handful – whatever form, they’re yummy. How much better to purchase locally grown food rather than blueberries flown up from Chile or lettuce ...

In Forest and Field. The observations and opinions of a life-long naturalist. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Finally caught up with my reading, gradually working through the magazines that had piled up over the past months. Only a bit over a year and several months late, and deep in the pile, I eventually got to the November 2013 issue of Smithsonian. And there, staring out from the page was a photograph of a compass that looked amazingly familiar. The compasses aren’t identical: Lewis’ compas...C ompasse...
