I am an avid outdoors man and conservationist who feels that the woods, field, and streams serves as my church. I express my artistic talents with my camera for the world to see. I have added INaturalist to help me track my encounters in the natural world. I live on a 5 acre lot in Iowa with a restored lowland prairie, a feeder creek, and woodland. I am encouraged that this group can help me grow as a conservationist within my community.
