Dr. Terry Balding is a retired professor of biology. He taught animal behavior, ornithology (birds), field biology, wildlife biology, mammalogy, and other courses. Student evaluations said he was, “humorous” and “enthusiastic”. His favorite evaluation said, “I always look forward to going to his class”.
While Dr. Balding is still a novice with a camera, recent technology allows him the ability to take hundreds of photos relatively inexpensively; that way maybe 1 or 2 will turn out to be great photos. Modern technology allows us to have a pretty good camera with magnification, macro-lens, and many pixels. Because this high quality camera fits in your pocket, it size has allowed Dr. Balding to be able to have it along so that he could take photos and not end up saying, “I wish I would have had my camera”.
While the title of this presentation is, Unusual Photos and features birds, it does have other slides with favorite scenes. Occasionally slides are arranged to add an element of surprise or humor. Dr. Balding believes you will find this presentation entertaining, interesting, and educational.
