He has used his birding skills developed over the years in scientific projects such as USFWS Breeding Bird Surveys\, Partners in Flight point counts\, Christmas bird counts\, and seasonal surveys. For several years he conducted Beginning Birding and Birding by Ear classes at Warner Parks and at Radnor Lake S.P.  In recent years\, dragonflies and damselflies\, and butterflies have come into focus as favorite subjects. But Spring birds will always be a favorite.
