Voted Best Avian Educator by the Editors of the East Bay Express in 2003, Ted Pierce shares his philosophy about birding and life. Ted teaches how to enjoy bird watching in a collegial and fun manner. The goal isn't to build up the competitive "life list" of species seen; rather it is a way to learn about the environment and to sharpen one's observation skills. At this website, you can explore Ted's upcoming tours, classes, field reports and nature essays. Look for periodic updates.
