Mystery and excitement ...Lucky Indigo Bunting gets his good eats at Cape May's Higbee Beach and sings for us. 6082

I have been haunted by many of the ideas presented in a book , A Season at the Point. A good read if you are a birder. "...an intimate view of the currents, countercurrents and passions of the naturalists whose lives revolve around Cape May’s annual drama of migration. This book is bound to lead others to appreciate and protect the birds of prey that grace our skies and the wild lands they need to survive.” –Roger Tory Peterson

"Cape May Point, New Jersey, is home to a natural phenomenon of stunning proportions. Each autumn millions of migrating birds converge here on their annual flight to wintering grounds as far away as Brazil and Peru. Season at the Point, the rich and telling story of the birds and birders of Cape May, evokes the sense of mystery and excitement that pervades the Cape as birders gather to count owls by the hundreds, hawks by the tens of thousands, and shorebirds and songbirds by the hundreds of thousands." groveatlantic.com

"Mystery and excitement." Adventure around every corner all set in a story book of a town. At my side Eileen, my sister, and indefatigable birder, naturalist guide, and Flickr friend Kyle Dunbar.

I want these precious areas protected and cherished.
