Backyard and Beyond

Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Birds

Eastern Wood-Pewee
Larch-top Great Blue, near the koi-pond.
House Wren, judging if I am edible.
Brown Thrashers bred in Green-Wood this year. Is this one of them?
We will be saying goodby to the Gray Catbirds, soon.
Mockingbird skirts…
Red-eyed Magnolia fruit-eating Vireo.
Phoebe with somebody’s leg. Orthoptera?
