Hello fellow photographers! My name is Betty Wiley and I live on Cape Cod. Yes, I have it rough. LOL. I am recently retired after having spent over 20 years in the biotech industry specializing in rare diseases and now I have time to photograph my two favorite subjects - birds and children. When you think about it, they are not that different as neither group sits still for very long. I have been spending a lot of time photographing birds this year and made a trip to South Texas in May and recently discovered Nickerson Beach on Long Island. I really haven't posted my images before so I am going to venture over to the forums in the "Eager to Learn" group and get my feet wet. It's a little intimidating as there are so many good photographers on this forum.
