What Is The Last Green Valley?
The Last Green Valley is green by day and dark by night. We are a National Heritage Corridor with a rich history in a surprisingly rural landscape. With 84% forest and farm, we are the last swath of dark night sky in the coastal sprawl between Boston and Washington DC.
The Last Green Valley, Inc. (TLGV) works for you in the National Heritage Corridor. Together, we can care for it, enjoy it and pass it on!

Great news! We have just confirmed another nest in The Last Green Valley Heritage Corridor! It's in Preston. That brings us to 14 confirmed and active nests. We don't have photos of it yet, but wanted to post this photo taken about a month ago of a local pair in Sprague. Our volunteer monitor JP observed them working on their nest and this photo shows them taking a break after some hard work.

Great news!
Woo hoo
This adult bald eagle was photographed several years ago at Bigelow Hollow State Park in Union. The pair up there have had their fair share of adversity, but they keep coming back and they keep having fledglings. But we also chose this photo because if you look carefully you will see the eagle is looking back over his/her right shoulder, far further back than any of us can. Eagles can turn their heads 180 degrees in either direction. We turn our heads 70-90 degrees. So this eagle, isn't even close to turning its head as far as it can.
