Ice fishing season is upon us! This favorite winter pastime is an exciting way to get outside with friends and family, create lasting memories, enjoy Maine’s prized natural resources, and reconnect with nature.

A new issue of the Maine Bird Atlas’ newsletter, Black-capped Chronicle, is now available!

The 2021 breeding season, the fourth of five for the Maine Bird Atlas, is wrapped up and what a year it was! We hit some major milestones in the project thanks to a tremendous effort from our volunteers and this blog will touch on some of those. Whether you contributed a single record this summer or helped complete a series of priority blocks, every bit of effort counts and is necessary to get us over the finish line next year.
