In this 20th edition of the Saw-whet, we feature Evelyn Joran-Thiel who is the class of 2024 board representative for our chapter. Her profile reflects a real passion both throughout an impressive professional career and through a lifelong love of the outdoors.
Our featured Famous Naturalist is Liberty Hyde Bailey who was instrumental in establishing the "New Agrarianism" movement calling for harmonious relationship between people and the land, promoting sustainable agricultural practices that respect ecological integrity.
Our photography group has been quite active, and there’s a page giving an overview of their many efforts. Also, we feature Fisher’s Hill in Shenandoah County - a great place for master naturalists to spend a few hours. Do you know the difference between damselflies and dragonflies? Under our Did You Know feature, you can find out. And have you ever listened to Jessica Bowser’s Virginia Outdoor Adventures podcast? It’s a great listen for those interested in Virginia’s many natural resources.
