I am so excited to be able to meet with you "virtually" and explore nature together. I've set up this blog post to share with you some of the videos, photos, and other resources with you so you can return to them if you'd like. ​If you like my photography, you can also check it out at www.seankent.smugmug.com. 
Here are some resources and photographs from my virtual talk on Friday, April 10 for Orchard Cove.

Chipping Sparrow

Each day, I've been making an extra effort to go exploring nature with my daughters. I was excited to start hearing Chipping Sparrows singing. They've returned from their migration from the Southern United States, Mexico, and northern Central America. You should be able to hear a Chipping Sparrow at Orchard Cove from now until the summer or early fall.
