American Birding Association Birding Magazine Article Dec 2015
In the December 2015 American Birding Association magazine “Birding” I was mentioned in an article on page 8 called “ABA’s Young Birders: The Future is now” as I entered the ABA Young Birder of the Year competition 2015.
I was also mentioned in the birding milestones section on page 10 about be seeing my 4000th bird in the world and with a photo of my 4000th bird on the contents page (page 5) http://bit.ly/1S2W7SC

Lyrical, poignant and insightful.’ - Margaret Atwood
This is my story; a journey defined by my love for these extraordinary creatures. Because large or small, brown, patterned or jewelled, there is something about birds that makes us, even for just moments at a time, lift our eyes away from our lives and up to the skies.
