Just got my copy in the mail. The new format is really something. I highly recommend it. Unbelievable how much information, articles and photos they have been able to get into one issue.

As Bob Crowley mentioned with his kind words (thanks Bob!), the Spring 2019 issue New Hampshire Bird Records is out to subscribers. There’s a new look with this issue, and we’ve expanded the color cover to include the inside as well as the outside. There are so many great color photos out there I’m excited that we can print more of them.
The issue includes the article about Trumpeter Swans in New Hampshire that we already posted as an early sneak preview:

There will be another free article online and I’ll post when that is available.
