A flock of Snow Buntings (Plectrophenax nivalis) in Unity earlier this winter. Snow Buntings have the northernmost range of perching birds, also called passerines by the ornithologically inclined. They can be found in fallow fields in Central Maine throughout the winter, but will soon fly north to their breeding grounds in the Canadian taiga and tundra. Photo by Tom Aversa.
THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!
Thank you to our volunteer crews for helping to plant trees and shrubs at the Rines Preserve and clear trails at the Moulton's Mill Preserve (above). We will focus our upcoming workday on trail cleanup and removing invasive plants at Moulton's Mill. Hopefully you can join us in the future - it’s hard work but fun and always good to be outdoors! Learn more about volunteering.
