Some relatively new discoveries, and new technologies, tell a remarkable story about New Hampshire’s ancient coastline and its rapidly-changing future.
NH naturalist and author Sy Montgomery introduces us to Fire Chief, a 42-lb. snapping turtle. She and illustrator Matt Patterson worked together to help Fire Chief regain the ability to walk after being hit by a car. This is the third episode i
N.H. naturalist and author Sy Montgomery had the rare experience of helping to raise two orphaned baby hummingbirds. We get a peek into the complex endeavor, and the strength Sy finds in these tiny birds, in our second episode in the series: “
There are fewer than 3000 Blanding’s turtles in the northeast. We spend some time with NH naturalist and author Sy Montgomery to learn how she’s helping to give the endangered turtles a head start.
Learning bird songs and calls links you to a kind of birding folklore passed down from generations of birders. How many can you identify?

A phenomenon called "thermonasty" causes rhododendron leaves to curl up when it’s really cold out. This adaptation allows these broad-leaved evergreens to thrive in the doubly-challenging conditions of damp soil and freezing temperatures.
There's a reason you may never have found an antler in the woods, despite N.H.'s population of 100,000 deer (not to mention a few thousand moose). Shed antlers provide nutrients to a whole host of forest-dwellers who recognize their value.
The weather in New Hampshire’s White Mountains has, over millennia, created forests that are specifically suited to extreme weather conditions.
