I am a retired pilot. Photography is a hobbie, I enjoy photographing everything but Nature Photography and birds are my favorite subjects. Flying birds fascinate me probably because of the pilot thing. I live outside of Sacramento and get out 2 times a week to see the wildlife. I have been taking photo's for 50 years, but digital photography has reenergized me.

"Your bird photographs are absolutely wonderful, and when I asked for permission to paint from them, you generously gave it.
When we were planning the Flicnic in Langley, B.C. I looked at your stream and wished that you could be here... something said he won't come if you don't invite him! And you and Bobbie came all the way from California! Too bad my towhee was scared of your lens, Don!
It is a privilege to know you and to count you as my friend!"3rd August, 2006

"I have been posting photos to flickr since November, 2005. During that time I've had the pleasure of viewing a lot of photos. My personal favorites tend to be nature. Don fills the bill when it comes to birds, flowers and nature in general. He also happens to have a great sense of humor and is a frequent visitor and commenter on others' nature photos. I value him as a photographer and kind human being."

"BIRDER.
the only that word that describes all his work, his patients to catch these in all possible activities.
All his collection just speaks everything above mentioned."7th November, 2005

"Don's got about the best collection of bird, flower, furry critter and landscape shots anywhere on Flickr. I am regularly awed in particular by his shots of birds in flight (no one does it better), but all of his shots show his keen knowledge of his subjects and how best to capture them for posterity. He's also a great member of the Flickr community, visiting and commenting often, giving praise and encouragement with wit and humor. Thanks, Don, for being such an inspiration."
