lakeside birding Orientation:
I am more likely to be available on weekends and holidays but might be able to take you out on business days with advance notice. I can customize your tour to focus on certain species or habitats, or we can take a less-focused approach and simply go birding! Our choices will, of course, be influenced by the season and the weather.
