Welcome to the Watch the Birds blog!

Hello and Welcome to the "Watch the Birds" blog, straight from the Green Mountains!

My name is Madeleine and since the age of nine, I have been writing a bird column, documenting bird activity and discoveries from my backyard. My beloved grandmother ignited my passion for birds at an early age, showing me the beauty and bounty of nature and the avian world. Now, an avian enthusiast and full-time student, I continue to explore and appreciate the world of birds around me.

Since 2001, I have written a seasonal bird column for the Manchester Journal, the weekly publication for the Northshire area of Southern Vermont. My very first column was published in another area publication the summer of 2000, when I was nine years of age. The following summer, I switched to the Journal, where I continue to publish.

Sorry for the absence




Hi all!

As many of you have noticed, my column has not be appearing regularly in The Manchester Journal as per usual. Due to the economic situation, the paper has been cutting down on the size of its publication and often times, novelty columns are the first to be cut. The column is in this week's paper and should be appearing more regularly for the rest of the summer. So, be patient with me and with the Journal and please keep looking for the column and reading!

Thanks and Happy Birding!

Madeleine
