Office calls from the public can bring our attention to specialists living in the area. Residents sometimes remark about birds at feeders in larger numbers than usual, or inquire why there are no sightings of more common ones.

Keeping a log of common questions also allows office staff to address at programs some of the more common misconceptions, folktales, and myths. University academics are consulted for more in-depth explanations if necessary. As with most inquiries, a quick search on Google helps. So does a list of specialists who can answer questions we can’ t.

All have the same plan: to enjoy this scenic and natural area as seasons descend showing variety and beauty.
