GREAT BACKYARD BIRD COUNT OF 2014

Who am I?

Dorothy Borders: I spent my working career in social services trying to make things better for others and now, in retirement, that is still my major concern. I am appalled at our failure to effectively address environmental issues and the existential threat to the planet that climate change is. My goal with this blog is to do whatever small bit I can to highlight that failure.
