Born in Yorkshire\, he also lived in\nJapan\, and birded worldwide before settling down in the USA. \nAfter one of his frequent mid-life crises at the turn of the millennium\, Richard decided it\nwas time to spend less time obsessively birding and to focus on paying it forward.\nSometimes called crazy (his badge of honor)\, wildly passionate\, and driven\, Richard’s\nfocus is youth birding\, and connecting people to a fuller appreciation and understanding\nof nature. \nRichard’s recently published books The Crossley ID Guide: Western Birds\, The\nCrossley ID Guide: Waterfowl\, and Ornitherapy April 2021. These books continue to\nconnect us all to nature with a stronger appreciation and understanding of our\nsurroundings\, including their many health benefits.
