Autorenporträt
One spring day when I was fourteen years old, a little girl from our neighborhood was walking down our street. In her hands she was carrying a large box. When she saw me in my parent's backyard, she approached me and said: "I found this baby bird on the ground and I don't know what to do with it. Will you take it for me?"Well for sure that's not what I had planned for the day, but for some reason, I agreed. She left, and without knowing where the nest was, I asked my parent's permission if we could try and raise the little bird. It just so happened to be a baby Robin. When it was strong, healthy, and able to fly, we released it back into the wild where it belonged. Ever since then, the Robin has been and will remain my favorite bird.Now as a wildlife photographer, I've had a special interest in capturing photos of Robins in action for many years. Observing all of their movements and habits prompted me to write the words in this book. Also, the photos featured in the book were processed through a computer art filter to give them a painterly quality. This creative venture came about in a divine and organic way over a long time. My hope is that this book inspires a sense of wonderment and reverence, not just for Robins but for all of nature and creation.
