In this portion of the website I will attempt to share some of my observations on nature in the field and elsewhere. I have been keeping a natural history journal since the early 1960's. Since my initial interest dealt primarily with herpetology, most of the more dated excerpts pertain to that discipline. As I matured, however, and particularly through the works of men such as Carl F. Kauffeld, Roy Bedicek, Aldo Leopold, and Roger Tory Peterson, I became aware that all of nature was just as wondrous as were reptiles and amphibians. So, even though I have moved on from my total, tunnel-vision fixation on herps, they still hold a special place in my heart. Any opinions expressed here are strictly my own. Thanks for reading.
