I have been married ever since I was a teen to a woman who has been my wife for a great number of years. I married her when I was 19 and she was 16 and we have been married ever since. We have five children and 14 grandchildren. She is the woman of all my beautiful dreams and will remain that way forever.
I am just a little bit nutty about birds. I started bird watching many many years ago when I was a little boy, but the bird watching changed for me one day when a friend of mine came over and showed me some of his pictures. Since then, my life hasn't been the same.
Bird waching then changed for me. I just had to see what these little creatures looked like close up. The greatest thrill for me is to go to the forest and sit in my Ford Bronco and watch Gods world unfold in front of my eyes.
Watching nature unfold in the forest is like watching a scene from Heaven and I plan on going there one day.
I have been acquainted with a man name Jesus now for a long time and he leads and guides me and he is my best friend. Without him, I would have no reason for living.
You will probably see mostly birds on my Flickr page because living here in the wet lands of our home town is like living in a paradise.
I welcome you to take a look at my pictures and I thank you for each time you stop by...
Have a Happy day and May God Bless each and every one of you!

PA & Lat says:
"I think of George as an "ambassador" of sorts of the Indiana Audubon Society's Bird Gallery and Archive. His encouragement of others through positive feedback has contributed greatly to the pleasant environment of our photo group. George's photos are far reaching in the flickr universe, as he has a large fan base of personal contacts, birders, and wildlife lovers from around the world. People visit his photostream like they're visiting a photo group.
His photos are well-composed and full of vibrant color. Indeed, looking at his photostream is like savoring a slice of southern Indiana wildlife. We feel lucky to have such a talented and thoughtful gentleman as "George Sr." in our group."10th February, 2007

"George is one of the absolute best bird photographers I have encountered on Flickr. His shots are consistently well composed, tack sharp and present the beautiful specimens in such natural looking postures.
His ability to use available light is not an accident, not happenstance and it ain't luck; he's just that good. He knows what he wants long before the shutter goes down.
Finally, he is one heck of a very nice guy. Thoughtful and kind and always has an encouraging word. Keep these great shots coming George, you've built a great photostream (portfolio) here on Flickr and I find myself returning often just to be amazed by your talent.

"I am honoured to have such a great avian photographer as a contact. His photographs of the wild bird life are truly fantastic. George should have been an Audubon photographer. Excellent job, George!"
