I've always had an interest in nature. When I got my first digital camera in 2003 I decided to photograph different plants and animals that I saw on my nature walks. This has been an enjoyable hobby and learning experience.

Some of my better quality photos are on my Smugmug photo site if you are interested. https://paultavares.smugmug.com/Wildlife
