Year in photos: The Chesapeake watershed in 2024 Visions of what’s at stake in the restoration effort

I travel all across the 64,000-square-mile Chesapeake Bay watershed, photographing science, restoration and what's at stake for people and wildlife in the region. Hot off the presses is our year in photos, with work by me and Rhiannon Johnston, this year's skilled summer intern.

The race to reverse the saltmarsh sparrow's decline The fate of a species depends on saving its waterlogged habitat

The saltmarsh sparrow might end up on the endangered species list in the next decade, and could be extinct by 2050. But groups are working to try to stop the rapid decline of the species. I wrote and photographed this recap of efforts in Maryland by Audubon Mid-Atlantic, USFWS and others. 🦉

Outdoors Maryland | Season 36 | Episode 3601 | MPT Adventures in aviation; saving the saltmarsh sparrow; unearthing a famous frontiersman.

One of my favorite memories this year was standing in the middle of a salt marsh at sunrise, surrounded by rare birds. The segment I produced aired this week on the season premiere of Outdoors Maryland on Maryland Public Television!
