We’re pleased to welcome new contributors to the Millstone, Carolyn and Bruce Waddell, who will be writing a column called What Is That? A Series about Local Wildlife.
The Waddells are retired from the federal public service and note that:
“In preparation for retirement, we bought a cottage on White Lake where we now live eight months of the year. We have a canoe and kayaks and spend long hours on the lake, enjoying nature and photographing the wildlife. Often, we are surprised to look at the resulting pictures on our desktop and realize we do not know exactly what that animal is … is it a crow or a raven, a toad or a frog, a turtle or an alligator? This has led to long, interesting hours of research to identify what we have captured … on camera.”
We’re happy to have them aboard. You can read their first column here.
