I came up with a goal to take pictures of at least 1,000 different bird species when digital photography came along. What started in January of 2002 at the ‘Brig’ in NJ, finished a little over 21 years later somewhere near Cali, Colombia. In between I posted updates to this site for many many years only to have my site crash in 2021 which resulted in losing all of the site content. So, I am rebuilding the site from scratch – no better way to relieve some of the fun I had over the years.

Birding
I enjoy birding birding just about every time I get to go out there but some places and outings are a bit special

Bird Photography
Over 300,000 images taken so far and counting…

Painting
Just getting started. Both fun and frustrating at the same time.
