re-Introduction

I have had blogs before in my life. Two blogs, in fact. Both of which are now defunct, sort of kind of: mwyork.blogspot.com and bigbendnature.com. The latter of those two I like to think is not totally dormant; because it had quite the audience. The former I am not even sure the password to get into it, as it was allied with an email address gone by.

I am who I have always been, a bird nerd with a side hustle of lepidoptera. I am still a field ornithologist, however now a majority of the time (though not all) is avocation and hobby, and spirit, and life, and breath… rather than occupation. I do have some side gigs in the field.

As it is now, I am playing more the important role of uncle to three rapidly growing kids. Son and brother who is not always across the continent… or off it for that matter. While I have squashed geography in regards to immediate family, I have not lost interest in wildlife.

In fact, avian fauna is often all that really makes sense in my life currently (sometimes feels as if all I know or understand); and even that is changing with climate.
