Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

Seen at Elgin, Quebec while looking unsuccessfully for the Grasshopper Sparrows. A kind Mrs. Chodat allowed access to her fields and held off cutting them until she was sure no Grasshopper Sparrows would be harmed.
