My first nature fascination was and still is with birds. However, my interests have grown to include more especially including wildflowers and plants, butterflies, dragonflies and damselflies. I do not have the best memory or ability to discern details and subtle differences. I have difficulty with terminology such as all that describes wildflowers and plant parts. I am attempting to take photographs to build my library and help me to remember and pay closer attention to details. Since 2006 I've been living in the Greater Cleveland area of north-east Ohio, USA.
