About Me

My photo
Ryan O'Donnell
Tempe, Arizona, United States
I am a biologist whose research focuses on birds, amphibians, and reptiles. I started this blog while trying to see 200 bird species in Cache County, Utah in 2008, and it has evolved into an ongoing way for me to share my experiences in nature. This blog focuses on birds, amphibians, and reptiles near my current home in central Arizona but includes other groups of organisms in other places as I encounter them.
