Some of My Favorite Things reflect my many years of birding. As a hobby, an obsession, birds have dominated a substantial part of my life. To support my birding activities, I have been fortunate to have worked/lived in several national park areas and/or National Park Service offices. In succeeding order, they included Crater Lake in Oregon, Pinnacles and Death Valley in California, Zion in Utah, Big Bend in Texas, Santa Fe in New Mexico, Washington D.C., and Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee and North Carolina. Most of the birds included in Some of My Favorite Things, is the result of those diverse opportunities. Some of My Favorite Things includes a grand total of 90 species, 84 of which are photographs. Additional photographs are included to illustrate perinate habitats and/or characteristics.
