A long-time childhood dream was finally realized, only to discover it might be too late for my grandchildren to have the same opportunity. I came home from Svalbard determined to help, but I didn't know how. Because of my wonderful connections in conservation, I found a way.

While driving back roads looking for wildlife, I will stop to admire old architecture. The Locust Grove Church is among many beauties in my area of the PNW.

Working on my website today, dull back room stuff, but I DO love hummingbirds! This portrait of a Rufous is among my faves. Will be happy when it's updated & caught up with recent images.

Portrait of a gorgeous polar bear climbing onto ice. I left my heart in Svalbard this summer, the adventure of my lifetime. Ice is melting there 7 times faster than anywhere else on the planet.

Ever swim with a polar bear? Me either, I was in a RIB with a super long telephoto lens. Trip of a lifetime and I left my heart in Svalbard. Gallery show to raise awareness & funds coming in Feb, at Made in the Gorge, Hood River OR.

Good morning Blue Sky! Actually it's raining here today, but that gives me time to work on my website until someone calls me about a bird or animal that wants their portrait taken in the rain.... This is my back yard, a short hike out my back door.

One of my favorite eagle family images. During winter raptor surveys I watch for nests, then go back in spring to follow the families' progress.

Is this the epitome of the Columbia River Gorge? As beautiful as it is, its not the center of our world. Dive a little deeper, hike our trails, watch our wildlife, visit our businesses, raft our waters, climb our mountains.....

When not in the field looking for wildlife, I'm in my garden enjoying local flora & fauna. Newly set up here, let's see what happens. Hopeful for a happy place!!

I waited 5 yrs to capture this image of a pika eating a daisy. It's among my favorites!
