A team of dedicated board members, volunteers, and student interns has published every page in Volume 9. This volume includes 360 images of paintings and lyrical descriptions of birds, now available online for everyone to enjoy anywhere in the world. This is a monumental task. Each volume requires approximately 400 hours to photograph, edit, transcribe, catalog, and publish online. We need your support to complete this work.
If you're tech-savvy, have a good eye, are meticulous with details, and love structured data, please consider volunteering by emailing us at hello@rexbrasher.org.
We encourage all bird lovers and supporters to consider a monetary donation to support our mission to make Rex's work available for everyone. You can provide a one-time or recurring donation online.
A member of the Snipe Family feeding on the wintry beach seems as much out of place as a Hummingbird and the observer is apt to think that injury has interrupted his southern journey. I have seen PURPLE SANDPIPERS on the rocky Maine coast, searching seaweed for food, apparently indifferent to cold.
Altho nowhere common, these hardy birds are not infrequent visitors to Atlantic shores as far south as Long Island and may be less rare than supposed, for few observers brave the windswept shores in Winter.
They nest on the high hills of Iceland, the Faeroes and Spitzbergen but American sites are closer to the sea.
