The American Chestnut Foundation is working to bring the American Chestnut Tree back from the fungus that nearly wiped it out in the early twentieth century. The nuts produced by the tree are not only good for roasting, but for a wide variety of mammals and birds to eat.

He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy and Desmond Shearwater. His bird photographs have appeared on the Today Show, in Birding, Living Bird Magazine, Bird Watcher's Digest, and many other fine publications. He is also the author of the American Birding Association Field Guide to the Birds of New York.
