As we don’t live in a vacuum, and we would be remiss if we didn’t also talk about how our human communities are surviving under the coldheartedness that is ICE. We cannot have healthy ecosystems (and places for birds) without healthy communities, social justice, and economic justice to support, protect, and nourish each other and those ecosystems. We need communities where people are not being brutalized, assaulted, killed, nor stolen from their families. We stand with Minnesota. And Maine. And others.![]()

Explore the interwoven history of humans, birds, and waterways with your art. Consider upcoming “250th” celebrations in the US, the much-longer history of humans on the landscape in the Green Mountains and Champlain Valley, and the much, much, much longer stories of how birds have evolved with, use, and been influenced by water and waterways. Ponder habitats, adaptations, and interactions.![]()
