Owls, wildflowers and other species native to the North Quabbin region have been photographed and explained in the Athol Bird & Nature Club’s 2019 calendar.
The calendar, according to coordinator Ernie LeBlanc, features “nature notes with local information on bird migrations, wildflower blooms, meteor showers and other outdoor and wildlife information, nature trivia, fun facts and more.”
