Ford lives in Traverse City where he works at Four Season Nursery. The nursery specializes in selling Michigan native plants. Tom studied art and biology at Central Michigan University. His favorite mediums include watercolors and black ink. He uses 260# cold pressed Arches watercolor paper. His illustrations capture the beauty of flora and fauna in the Northwoods and his work focuses on native plants and the ecosystems they support. Tom's first trip north to witness spring migration at Whitefish Point was early May of 1977. Whitefish Point memories are often inspiration for a new piece of artwork. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/ac9b3223-4d86-49c6-881c-464bd2aad48b/grace-HM.jpeg Blog - Birdathon 2026 announcements - Make it stand out Honorable Mention: Grace Koopman from Nunica, MI. “I have deep roots in the Whitefish Point area that have been there since I was 12 years old. I love to paint anything in nature because it brings me closer to it, with a new perspective.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/e2eb4881-1956-4cec-824f-b12dd8e64198/Marissa-HM.jpeg Blog - Birdathon 2026 announcements - Make it stand out Honorable Mention: Marissa Begnoche from Petoskey, MI. "I am part of a large family that has been living and vacationing in Whitefish Point for 4 generations; as a landscape artist my work is strongly tied to places that are meaningful to me and as a result I have done many paintings focused on Whitefish Point, Paradise, and Lake Superior as a way to celebrate my connection with the region. As a primarily watercolor and acrylic artist, this sandhill crane illustration was a very fun exercise in digital art that allowed me to feature my favorite bird while experimenting with the texture of colored pencil illustration." You can visit Marissa’s website here and she will be at the Paradise Blueberry Festival this summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/8335f51c-d726-424d-a86d-bf6d676c8851/Killian-HM.jpg Blog - Birdathon 2026 announcements - Make it stand out Honorable Mention: Killian Sullivan from Gahanna, OH.

They received a B.A. in Biology from the University of Maine at Farmington and have been a wildlife technician ever since. While Liv has worked with passerines and marsh birds, they've found their true passion lies with owls and seabirds. This is their third season as an owl bander and their second season at Whitefish Point, and they have spent the past four summers living on small islands off the coast of Maine as a seabird researcher for National Audubon Society's Seabird Institute. Liv loves the field and feels incredibly lucky to work so closely with such elusive and inspiring species. They are so excited to be back at Whitefish Point for another fall migration. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/756aec11-f47b-4fe1-a12b-49e6c93ea710/IMG_7133.jpeg Blog - Nanotagging Owls - Assistant Owl Bander - Fall 2025 From Ohio, Bridget graduated with a degree in Wildlife Conservation from Ohio University and has a strong love for birds of all kinds. She has been fortunate enough to be able to see some birds from all around the world and has had some amazing banding experiences. From passerines in Ohio, hummingbirds in Ecuador, Common Terns in Maine, raptors in Wisconsin and Pinyon Jays in Utah, she has high hopes to continue traveling to band birds. This will be her second season working with owls and she is hoping to be able to band a few new species! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/97bf1616-dff4-4ea5-ae8d-85a7d7747fd0/full+flyer+benefithouseconcert+for+rare+bird+%28Instagram+Post+%2845%29%29.jpg Blog - Nanotagging Owls - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/95c25e52-e152-440c-bcd0-7e052ee674f2/Fall+Birding+Tours+%2811+x+8.5+in%29.jpg Blog - Nanotagging Owls - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.friendsofwp.org/blog/summer-banding-wrap-up monthly 0.5 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/6523018a-bdbb-4910-a768-eb3ebc3ca3a1/NSWO+juv+molt+8-19-25+blog.jpg Blog - Summer Banding Wrap-up - Make it stand out This juvenile saw-whet, one of the summer’s last, had molted in more of its adult plumage than any other we saw this summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/d1b315b2-27a6-4d2b-b9a7-b444c8a47271/House-Concert-Image-16-9.png Blog - Summer Banding Wrap-up - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/825c7a73-a5da-4809-ab36-646e168887e7/Fall+Birding+Tours+16-9+%28Presentation%29.jpg Blog - Summer Banding Wrap-up - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.friendsofwp.org/blog/holly-farewell monthly 0.5 2025-08-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/673bbbf13c95ef707b5ac329/5b5bbbc3-e516-4958-9871-5beafdac679b/Holly+with+1st+LEOW+blog.jpg Blog - Holly’s Farewell - Make it stand out Holly with her first Long-eared Owl.

In these two photos, you can see some of the white adult spotting coming in on the back of the owl’s head and the beginnings of the white-streaked facial disks seen in adult birds.
