I've been writing on nature and wildlife in Colorado and the American West for over 35 years, sharing my love of nature and my joy and wonder in wildlife and the natural world. I've published 21 books and hundreds of articles, written dozens of projects for US Fish and Wildlife, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, US Forest Service and others, and My Words on Birds birdwatching column ran in the Rocky Mountain News for 16 years. I've won many awards, including the Lifetime Achievement Award from Colorado Authors League; induction into the Colorado Authors Hall of Fame and the Frank Waters Award for a canon of writing that communicates a deep understanding of the West Though I am a writer by profession, I am a zoologist by education, a grounding in science that I use in my work every day. My writing offers an intersection between the heart and the mind--the joy of nature built upon a solid biological foundation. I love engaging readers with the wonder I feel in the outdoors, but with climate change, enjoying nature is not enough. So much is changing, so much is at stake, that I am committed to telling the authentic stories of the natural world and all that is happening around us.
