My Field Notes
My work is rooted in patient observation, a little field knowledge, and the joy of noticing what is already here.
Purple Martins
I help monitor Purple Martin colonies and welcome new volunteers into the work. It gives me a close look at migration, nesting, care, and the rare pleasure of seeing a community form around the birds.
Read my volunteer spotlight →I follow movement, migration, and the patience it takes for a story to arrive.
I find color, structure, and surprising connections in insects and blooms.
I find a whole other rhythm around ponds, from fish beneath the surface to wings above it.
