Have you ever gotten a little tired of birding all of the popular areas? If you’ve answered yes, you’re not alone.  In this presentation, I’ll speak about how I go about finding some of the off beaten areas I’ve found myself roaming around in looking for birds. Of course I’ll be sharing some images made over the years of expected and a few unexpected finds. 

In 1986 I left my Upstate NY home for life in the military. Somewhere between then and now I picked up a camera and a love of birds. Both are still with me to this day
