Biography:

I have no formal training or education in entomology. I am a backyard enthusiast with a passion for all living things. I originally started as a birder and that quickly evolved into wildlife photographer then photographer of ALL living things. Bugs have always fascinated me and my passion for photographing everything I see in nature and the thrill of giving every picture a NAME has since became an obsession. I love to learn and contribute helpful data for my home county. Most of what I see and photograph is in my "yard" which consists of a 21 acre native vegetation tract.
