About Ferns & Feathers

Ferns & Feathers is an online resource for environmental education and adventure in Delaware. It is the result of a relationship between a naturalist and an I.T. guru. Kara Okonewski, the naturalist, and her husband, David, the IT guru, have lived in Delaware since 2005. Originally a city girl from Detroit, Kara became quickly engrossed in Delaware wildlife, volunteering for rescue organizations and working for parks.
