Hilton Pond 01-01-07
When the new year rolls around, we don't usually make resolutions,
but we DO refresh our "natural calendar"--one that correlates human
holidays with things we need to deal with around Hilton Pond Center.
To see how our "natural calendar" works, please visit the 1-7 January

As always, we also provide a list of all birds banded or recaptured
during the week--plus a few miscellaneous nature notes.

early 1900s, a little-known Norwegian adventurer set forth in a
secondhand fishing boat and succeeded beyond all expectation. This

mission failed and Roald Amundsen's made it.
Hour one provides new details on the Franklin expedition, whose fate
was one of the great mysteries of the 19th century. Hour two airs
