The growing season is coming to an end for our conservation easements and land management sites throughout the New England region. This marks a transitional time to observe native flora species that have successfully completed their lifecycle. Plant stems provide an insight into conditions not physically observed throughout the year. Seed reproduction aims to increase desired species abundance, while providing a hearty winter food source for the fauna that depends on it.

These photos were captured at one of our habitat restoration sites in Saratoga County, NY, where NALT staff continue to actively manage habitat by removing invasive species and planting blue lupine to support the Federally Endangered Karner Blue Butterfly.

Join field biologists Sara Johnson and Ron Lance as they survey our Southwest Georgia Conservation Areas for the Bluff Oak (Quercus austrina). 🌳 The Bluff Oak can be found in a narrow range of riverine bluffs across the southeast.

Thanks to the Oak Hill Fund for helping to make this work possible!

Thank you, neighbors. Together, we showed up and made our voices heard. We showed up for ourselves. We showed up for our clean water. We showed up for the wildlife that cannot vote for themselves. We showed up for the future of the communities we love.

This victory belongs to all of us.

Please consider following our partners. They’re already doing such important work in the area, and now they’ll be empowered to take on even more. We thank them for their support and cannot wait to see what meaningful projects they take on next for the betterment of our beautiful county!

The physiography of the Blue Ridge Mountains as a whole is at its greatest expanse in this region. Rocks from the first known mountain building event are exposed here in places and are still held at over 3000 feet above sea level. The northern terminus of the Blue Ridge Mountains narrows to a single ridge in northern Virginia, totally only 3 miles wide from valley floor to valley floor. A transect running perpendicular to the mountains around Asheville measures over 75 miles.

The first time I hiked up to Craggy Pinnacle with Betty I was in awe of the vast expanse of mountains. I grew up a narrow portion of the Blue Ridge outside of Boone, North Carolina, but just a 30-minute drive from my house in east Asheville there was an aggregate of mountains that would consume every piece of my vision in all directions. How fabulous was that? 🗻

Members of the Birding Club of Delaware County (BCDC) gathered at Brinton Run Preserve last Saturday for a bird walk led by club member Andrew Swenda. On their stroll through the preserve, the group spotted 37 bird species, including year-round BRP residents and migratory birds stopping to refuel on their long journeys.

After the walk, Andrew reported "The day was beautiful and the variety and number of birds present for our walk were over the top. We even spotted a Vesper Sparrow which was a first for all of us."

Thank you to Andrew, BCDC, and to all who came out!
