Tripping on Travel: Audubon Society at Trail Wood 2, Hampton, CT

You may experience audio disruptions in this video. Part 2 has the camera exploring a portion of Firefly Meadow at the Audubon Society at Trail Wood, the former home of Edwin Way Teale and his wife Nellie. It is the sounds of the property that I remember most. Outside of the sound of a large plane in the sky, running water, and other sounds of the natural surrounding, grace the footage.

"Edwin was a well-known and influential author of 27 original books on natural history, science, and photography. In 1959, the Teales left their home in Baldwin, Long Island, to escape the crush of humanity, moving to Trail Wood in Hampton. Here they spent the rest of their lives examining every feature of the 156 acres they affectionately called “our Eden.” They named each trail, pasture, and corner so they could share the news of their daily rambles if they went out separately. The Connecticut Audubon Society has maintained the original site and trail names adopted by the Teales. 12 acres were subsequently added, bringing the current property size to 168 acres. Ten of Mr. Teale’s books were written at Trail Wood, including his 1966 Pulitzer Prize winner, Wandering Through Winter—the first natural history text to win a Pulitzer during the twentieth century. His last two books published during his lifetime, A Naturalist Buys An Old Farm and A Walk Through the Year, feature Trail Wood as their subject."
