| Introduction | I have been taking photos for years, (remember the Kodak Brownie) but I never really called myself a photographer. Then in 2003 I moved to Florida and met the birds. My work is not limited to birds. Birds are, however, abundant, allowing for plenty of practice with my Canon equipment And unlike alligators, birds are not very dangerous (although a long necked stilt did swoosh overhead unsettling close when I took pictures of her young). I am father to Bob and Jason. Husband to Connie Frances. Son to Mia and Matt. |
