Would you like a little whine with that? NewMahket, where “nuttin evah happens” and there is “nuttin to do.” The Baltimore OREOs caught up to the Orchard OREOs and the catbirds came along shortly after. There are hummingbirds around but I still haven’t managed to get a picture of one. The bird channel has been […]
News Flash!! We saw our first OREO, albeit an Orchard OREO. But it is a clear sign of spring. Wink also saw her first hummingbird, but I didn’t get a picture of it. We immediately got the summer feeders out and an Orchard OREO male came to the feeder. The Baltimore Orioles won’t be far

We got an early welcome to winter this year. We had a slow moving Nor’easter that lasted more than two days and dumped half a meter of snow on us. I have documented it for my readers pleasure. I invited the California ladies to join us but they said ‘Thank You, No! We got over

A Gundalow is a flat bottom lateen rigged cargo boat active on Great Bay from 1750 to 1850. By 1850, the sailing boats were replaced by railroads as commerce moved inland.
