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.
