| 2009-07-17 | Karen | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thx so much for your timely response. My neighbor consulted w/ her "bird lady" and was informed that starlings also attack robin nexts and are "headhunters". Thx again. Karen |

| 2009-07-04 | billie | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks. We do have a bird bath in a shaded spot for birds. It was good to learn that she was just panting to cool herself. The location of her nest in mid afternoon is exposed to the sun for a couple of hours, and that's when we noticed her 'panting'. Isn't nature miraculous? |
| 2009-07-04 | Dustin | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks for the prompt response! After further research, you are most definitely right, it was a Northern Flicker, the yellow shafted variety! I had never seen one before & it was a great way to start the day! Thanks again! |
| 2009-04-29 | Bill | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks very much for the confirmation, Julia! Best, Bill |
| 2009-04-29 | Mark | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Very insightful, Thankyou. |
| 2009-04-27 | bill | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks for the timely answer. I will tell other peo[le about your very helpful site. |
| 2009-04-24 | Angela | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you so much for your very prompt and thorough response! We are looking forward to watching these Doves in their nesting cycle. Angela |

Expertise
I can answer questions about bird identification (by sight or sound), behavior, distribution, population, conservation, mating, nesting, fledging and feeding. I do have some practical knowledge about foreign species, but identification skills are limited in that arena.
Experience
I have ten years birding experience in Southern California. I am well versed in all the species living in the Western US. Many hours spent birding. I have been frequently told I should lend my knowledge to good use, and have encountered few bird related questions that I cannot answer.
Organizations
Audubon Society
Education/Credentials
My education is in art and photography -but I have a substantial portfolio of nature related work.
