Exploring the Pfeiffer Arboretum Fall 2018

Thank you scientists, environmentalists, teachers, students, the press, and people who care.

The three birds captured in this photo  are all different. The uppermost one, consistently black with a straight edged tail is an American Crow. The middle is a Common Raven, they are considerably larger than American Crows, although this difference can be hard to judge on its own if you don't look at size and shape. Look for the Common Raven's heftier bill, shaggy throat feathers, more slender, pointed wings, and longer, wedge-shaped tail.

Despite icy conditions, a lot of you were able to join our hike last Saturday at Housatonic Flats. For those of your who opted out, no worries! There are more great hikes to come! These great photos came from Gabrielle K. Murphy.
