I am so excited to have completed my first landowner nature project with the installation of several beautiful bird nest boxes made by Valley local Patrick Hannigan from Nice Nests!

Observations of nature and wildlife.

I'm blessed to live in the Methow Valley of North Central Washington, one of the darkest areas in the state. As we head into a period of solar maximum, here are tips for seeing and photographing the elusive northern lights.
