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.

A beacon of colour during a heavy thunderstorm. Shortly after this was taken we were temporarily stuck under a roof while the heavens opened up.

This bird was wary, though most of the other tanagers we saw were not so shy. Gamboa, Panama.

Seen taking cover in a thunderstorm. This bird also caused some confusion as it's not very green, and the bill is 2-toned. The tail in other photos however is very rufous. Gamboa, Panama.
