Welcome!
Welcome to the mon@rch nature blog and I hope you join us in some of our nature adventures through the Allegany State Park area!
I am a naturalist, field biologist and nature photographer from the Western New York area. I have started exploring nature writing through this blog and it truly has been fun sharing my numerous adventures with everyone. Thanks to the many other authors that help me with my post and they will be sharing some of their nature explorations.
I have always had a latent interest in birds and photography and have been lucky enough to find time to explore these interests over the last few years. I am very thankful to the Cattaraugus County Bird Club for getting me started, sharing their wealth of knowledge and for their wonderful programs. And many thanks to Tom for letting me share some of my adventures and photos on the Monarch Nature Blog.
Thank you for taking the time visiting and commenting on this blog.

Oooh! So elegant! I love the misty one especially. And the squirrel yesterday was adorable! I never heard of that kind of squirrel before. It’s much cuter than the “regular” gray squirrels that frequent my bird feeder =(

I am always confused on Wordless Wednesdays if I am supposed to comment or not. ?? After all a comment is full of …well, words.
Now your beautiful photos would never need words. However I do appreciate the commentary on your posts every day you choose to post.
Are we gonna get bunny pictures for Easter??

I grew up in New Mexico where egrets are common, so thank you for the childhood memories! Beautiful photos!
