Interested in discovering some of the birds, plants and nature that are often hiding in plain sight all around us?  Local naturalist Josh Fecteau will share some of the wild treasures he’s found near his home in Kennebunkport, and encourage all of us to go outside to make rewarding discoveries of our own.

On Tuesday, August 18th, at 7 p.m., York County Audubon will be presenting this program online.  The program is available free of charge, but advance registration is required.  Please use the link in red bold below.

Josh grew up along the southern Maine coast.  In his early 20’s, he discovered his passion for the natural world.  Since then, he has spent countless hours exploring New England, observing and interacting with his surroundings in fresh, exciting ways.

In 2017, he gave free reign to his passion for birds, and ended up setting a Maine Big Year record, observing 317 different bird species in Maine in that calendar year, including quite a few rarities.

Another passion is his love of wild native plants, especially edible ones.  Over the years, he has presented a variety of workshops and programs on foraging for edible wild plants, providing guidelines and tips for safe, successful and satisfying foraging in your backyard and beyond.

His strong desire to share his love of the natural world with others who are hungry for wild connection inspires his blog, joshfecteau.com, where he is making steady progress toward his goal of providing 237 Reasons to Go Outside.
