It sure was fun speaking with Owen and Quentin Reiser about “Listers,” the most entertaining birding media I’ve encountered. www.audubon.org/magazine/get...

We just published pretty much the greatest collection of bird photos you could ask for. 🪶https://www.audubon.org/magazine/2025-audubon-photography-awards-top-100

One of my favorite projects every year. I'm a sucker for urban wildlife so I'm partial to the parrot shot. www.audubon.org/magazine/202...

This is a great example of active resistance www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/c...

Tired: "editor" (connotes adding commas and ensuring that words are spelled right) Wired: "story developer" (I conceived this baby from a single comment made by a scientist and/or turned a pile of disconnected notes into a cohesive narrative with gripping stakes and a lasting takeaway)

I spent years covering industrial air pollution and the incremental EPA reforms to clean up the air in places like Kentucky, Missouri, Mississippi. Some of those changes were anticipated to make a real difference soon. Here's what's at stake under Trump's EPA: www.propublica.org/article/dona...

Great wildlife tech story by Claudia Geib, plus check out the infrared aerial camera footage of cute nesting grouse. www.audubon.org/magazine/fol...

reminder: my newsroom runs on funding from readers if you're a reader with disposable income, chip in!

Pantone's color of the year is "Mocha Mousse." Ornithologist Robert Ridgway might have called it "Walnut Brown." Learn more about Ridgway, and the massive dictionary he created to describe birds' hues, in this delightful read from @alicesunreports.bsky.social! www.audubon.org/magazine/lon...

Scientists previously thought a 2015 marine heatwave killed 1 million Common Murres. In a new @science.org paper they find that it was actually much worse: 4 million murres died—the worst recorded wildlife mortality event in the modern era, Anna Gibbs reports. www.audubon.org/magazine/sin...

It was a pleasure working with Sarah on her fantastic feature— and after seeing the photography and learning they encountered a dozen polar bears in just a few days, i definitely regret not tagging along :)

I was deeply disappointed by the lack of nature/science/climate/enviro on many major end-of-year book lists—so I decided to make my own! Introducing: ✨🎁📚 The 2024 Holiday Gift Guide to Nature & Science Books ✨🎁📚 Please share: Let's make this go viral in time for Black Friday / holiday shopping!

Don’t become a statistic this Thanksgiving. Follow @jessleber.bsky.social’s advice. www.audubon.org/magazine/whe...

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all. Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Don't ever turn your back on a Wild Turkey...and other tips i've gathered on how to survive out there when turkeys come to town.

Great story by @maddieburakoff.bsky.social from our upcoming Audubon mag issue. “The injustices that have shaped what we are today—as a nation, as a society—are shaping the entirety of the planet."

Interesting reflections on Hannah's and our team's climate coverage during Trump's first term that definitely still feel relevant.

We did a really fun graphic on all birds + other animals of Audubon magazine's covers over our 125 year history. Guess which bird was featured most often + then check it out! www.audubon.org/magazine/div...

a note to Washington Post readers: On Dec. 7, we ask you to respect our walkout by not crossing the picket line: For 24 hours, please do not engage with any Post content. That includes our print + online news stories, podcasts, videos, games and recipes.

My sister is an amazing journalist, so snatch her up!

An early victim of fake news, bearded vultures in Europe were persecuted for decades by people who believed they attack sheep & even children. Now, the unusual raptors — the only bird that eats mostly bones — are once again soaring over the Alps’ snowy peaks. #birds www.audubon.org/news/bone-ea...

Domesticated turkeys are a millennia-old American tradition, a species so nice that native nations tamed them (at least!) twice. I wrote your seasonal reminder about it for Audubon. 🪶🦃🦉🧪

So amidst all the excitement last week, Audubon asked lil' old me to write them a news story on the bird names announcement. (I gather they were caught by surprise and their staff writers were busy.) 🪶 www.audubon.org/news/all-nor...

Nice to see it!
