Welcome
This Web site is for anyone with an interest in Chicago area birds and birding. Since my last update I've given The Orniphile a facelift and pared down the content. Though the site is still geared towards local birds and birding, the emphasis is on my wildlife photographs and the Montrose Point area in Chicago. Have fun, good birding, and thanks for visiting.
What's new
- A Web Browsing Tips & Shortcuts page has been added.
- The Visual Identification of Illinois Nightjars article I wrote for Illinois Birds and Birding magazine is now up.
- A photo of a Black-capped Chickadee has been added to the Photo Gallery page.
Other stuff
