As his poodle Maggie keeps watch, Michael O’Connor, the curator at the Enfield Shaker Museum, rings the bell at the museum to mark Juneteenth on June 20, 2022, in Enfield, N.H. Signed into law in 2021, the federal holiday is marked as a day to commemorate the end of slavery. The bell was rung 157 times to celebrate the number of years since emancipation. Pulling the rope from the fifth-floor of the Great Stone Dwelling, O'Connor said the bell is also rung during Veterans Day and for school groups. The Shakers, who lived in Enfield from 1793 until 1923, used the bell as a wake-up call, for meals, evening services and emergencies. (Valley News - Geoff Hansen) Copyright Valley News.

Emily Blaikie, a researcher from the Vermont Institute of Natural Sciences, middle, steadies the ladder for Zooey Zullo, of New England Falconry, as she puts a young kestrel back into its nesting box after banding it in Woodstock, Vt., on Tuesday, June 14, 2022. Zullo has been passionate about birds since childhood. She named her daughter, who was a small baby born prematurely, Kestrel, "like ... North America' smallest, endangered and feisty falcon," said Zullo. The species is not on the brink of being lost, said VINS field research coordinator Jim Armbruster, left, "but anything we can do to keep from getting to that point is really helpful." The birds' dwindling numbers may be tied to loss of habitat in open space near dead trees with cavities for nesting. "So replacing them with nest boxes is one way that we think we can keep their populations from declining much farther," said Armbruster. Plans for building a kestrel nesting box can be found online through the American Kestrel Partnership. (Valley News - James M. Patterson) Copyright Valley News.
