Bio
I grew up memorizing the field guides to birds and visiting art museums, fostering interests in both biology and art. Bird photography became the perfect marraige between the two fields. After graduating with a degree in photography, I now lead bird photography workshops around the country and am one of the two US moderators for the birds forum on NatureScapes.net.
