I am a hobbyist photographer living just outside of Bloomington, Indiana. I primarily photograph local wildlife, especially creatures that fly. I began in February 2022 with a Nikon P610, but am now working with the OM Systems OM-1.

The oldest pictures that appear on my photostream were taken here in Monroe County, or just down the road in neighboring Brown County. Photos labeled "Salt Creek Township" were taken at or within walking distance of my home. More recently, I've also begun carrying my camera with me on family trips, especially to my native Kentucky and to Florida. I've labeled those photographs accordingly.

Whenever possible, I have indicated the species, sex, and age of animals and plants, but I have no training in ornithology or biology. Kind corrections are greatly appreciated.

Please note: Due to my work schedule, I am sometimes unable to reply to comments or to thank the people who so generously view or fave my photographs. I apologize for this, and I remain grateful for every engagement with my flickr page.
