Tom began specializing in hummingbird productions in 2002. His “Hooked on Hummingbirds” in 2004 was termed by Kenn Kaufman “a fantastic video!” He also produced 2006’s “Hooked on Galapagos Birds,” described by Audubon Naturalist News as “stunning,” and 2008’s “Hummingbirds! A Natural History” – endorsed by The Hummingbirds Society for classrooms. His work has been shown on “Animal Planet” and elsewhere. Tom is based in Rolling Hills Estates, on the Palos Verdes Peninsula |
