CancelI got a BS in Zoology and did graduate work in Wildlife Management, but spent my career in IT as a programmer and network architect. Now that I am retired, I can spend more time enjoying nature. My favorite topics are wildlife, nature photography and astronomy.
I have lived in Boulder since September 1976 and have birded extensively since then in Boulder County and Colorado. I have twice been president of the Colorado Field Ornithologists, and am currently chairman of the CFO Colorado Bird Records Committee. I spent most of my career at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, where I studied the role of the ocean in climate. I worked extensively on the climate model that is based at NCAR, and used it to make projections of the future climate.
I signed on to the BCPOS Volunteer Naturalist program in 2001, but, in reality, I have been a "naturalist" my entire life! Every aspect of the natural world intrigues me and, amazingly, it has the power to simultaneously lift me up in awe and take me to my knees in reverence and profound thankfulness! My interests are birds, native plants, geography and their related eponymy and over the last decade I have focused on the field identification and ecology of birds of prey.
