Photography

Observe · Wait · Capture

Eighty-three photographs, collected over several years of early starts — forest and city, the coast, the vultures, two grassland birds that are very nearly gone, a family that spends its life on the side of a tree, and a hornbill that needs an old hollow one. Every frame is the reward for staying still longer than seemed reasonable.

Species Identification Guides

References, not collections — bill keys, size ladders against birds you already know, confusion pairs, the season, the sites and the craft each group demands.
