I've been a birder for almost as long as I can remember, but I also enjoy butterflies and understanding the rest of the natural world. I'm grateful to iNaturalist for encouraging me to look ever more closely at the world around me.
I grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina, USA but have lived the last 30 years (or so) in New Mexico, USA. I especially enjoy desert and grassland landscapes.

For the last 20 years, I've worked for a bird habitat conservation group called the Playa Lakes Joint Venture. You can find out more about us at https://pljv.org/

My photographs are generally pretty poor. But you are welcome to use them, IF I don't have them attributed to someone else in the Notes section. I'd appreciate a heads-up if you do use one of my photographs.
