Polar Bear Day

Today is Polar Bear Day. None in Wisconsin, of course, but I did get to see them in far northern Alaska a couple of times, including during my ABA big year (2008) and when we lived in AK (2014-21). This painting, done a few years ago, is from one of my photos. Happy Polar Bear Day!

Mixed Up Blog

The plan was to post blog-type posts on a couple of pages of this site, but that apparently doesn’t work. So, below you will notice a whole bunch of “holiday” posts that got moved to this page. Below those posts (before 2025) are prior bird-related posts. I plan to continue to post bird-related posts on this page, probably intermingled with holiday posts every now and then. Birds are the main point of this site, and I will try to be more focused on those.
