Autorenporträt
Richard studied Education, Geography and Geology and graduated from Exeter University in 1977. He entered the field of TEFL which allowed him to teach abroad in several countries. His love of ornithology started in early childhood and he used every opportunity to find out more. He worked as a volunteer on a few RSPB reserves and honed his observation skills. He has run ornithology courses at night schools and became the newsletter editor for his county ornithological society. His notes on migratory birds showed that there has been a shift in their movement as the climate has changed. He has witnessed the demise of some of the local species: Cirl Bunting, Tree Sparrow and Turtle Dove. There has been a welcome arrival of some Mediterranean species which is indicative that global warming is causing great changes within the European avifauna.
