Nature Blog Networking: And a third look at Britain…

When I started exploring British nature blog, I certainly didn’t intend there to be three posts worth of them, but I certainly underestimated the number of active blogs from our friends in the United Kingdom.  And while it was unintentional that the series of posts would follow the rule of threes, it’s fortuitous that it [...]

Nature Blog Networking: A second look at Britain

When I featured British nature blogs several months ago I had a commenter mention that they were disappointed to miss the opportunity to be included.  So I decided to re-jump across the pond in the hope that I could encourage a few of those disappointed British Nature bloggers to submit their blogs for inclusion in [...]

Nature Blog Networking: NBN Rocks!

When I suggested a theme of rocks, I probably could have done a slightly better job explaining what I had in mind.  But thankfully, there are plenty of NBN blogs that sort of fit the bill in several different ways.  See, we have a Rocks/Minerals category on the toplist, but it has but one lonely [...]

Nature Blog Networking: Southern Comfort

The American South, as a regional entity, engenders a strange mix of reactions throughout the rest of the nation and world.  Sure, the south has it’s problems, especially with regard to the health, well-being, and education of many of its residents, its retro attitudes towards social issues and its oft bizarre preoccupation with a victorian [...]

Nature Blog Networking: a theme

Hello all, I’m making a short exception from my self-imposed blogging exile to announce the theme for next week’s Nature Blog Networking post.  This past weekend I had a nice time staking out a rare hummingbird in my home town with fellow blogger David Ringer of Search and Serendipity,  whose physical location is lately in Vicksburg, Mississippi.  So in mind [...]

Nature Blog Networking: O-H-I-O

I admit I have have a completely irrational bias against the state of Ohio.  See I grew up in Missouri, a place that most anybody would consider the Midwest.  So why do these easterners consider themselves of the Midwest too?  I mean, in order for the term to have any meaning at all there has [...]

Nature Blog Networking: New Joisey

Pop culture typically gives the Garden State a bad rap.  Too often we’re inundated with images of guidos on the jersey shore, or with implications of mafia involvement in civil affairs, are the image of New Jersey’s natural areas as dumping grounds for the cities of New York and Philadelphia.  And that’s not to say [...]

Nature Blog Networking: Write on!

I may be alone among bloggers in that I’ve never taken much of a shine to the term “blogging”. I mean, there’s nothing inherently wrong with this neologic contraction of weblog, an equally unwieldy term, it’s just that the term seems to lack the weight of something like “writing” or “composing”.  I fully realize my [...]

Nature Blog Networking: Deserted

As the bleak specter of winter hovers over most of the northern hemisphere, threatening to chill nature and nature lover alike right down to the bone, perhaps it’s nice to travel to place that’s always hot and dry, at least in my mind (which I fully appreciate isn’t always based in reality, but just go [...]

So blogs from Arizona, New Mexico, west [...]
