Naturally Curious with Mary Holland
I have involved in outdoor education for about 40 years. This is the best nature blog/site that I have ever read. It is always relevant to the season and the location (northeast) and extremely informative. I am always learning from this site.

What a wonderful milestone! Congratulations to you, Mary! I’ve only been reading all your posts for a few months….wish I’d known about your Blog sooner. I bought two of your Naturally Curious books, am enjoying reading all the wonderful information. We have so much woods & water around us & being a “curious person” I’m familiar with lots of the wildlife and nature near us. One book was given to my daughter, who is 32 today….we teach her 1 1/2 year old daughter about everthing we can in the natural world. Congrats!

Congratulations, Mary. You do an amazing job with the high-quality photographs and information day in and day out. I would like to be able to tell you to let up and take a rest and don’t be so regular and perfect. But I can’t tell you that – I’m too selfish. And today’s photo of a green darner (?) and bottle gentian is gorgeous. Thank you so much for all you do.
