About me
I've been involved with raptor migration in northeastern Illinois for approximately 25 years. I founded the Illinois Beach State Park Hawkwatch in 2000 and contributed much to the study of raptor migration. I am also currently serving on the board of the Hawk Migration Association of North America (HMANA) and Chair of the Winter Raptor Survey Committee. I also love to photograph raptors and have contributed to several raptor/birding guides, written several articles and frequently give in-person and online presentations.
