Keith Hansen introduces himself

[Keith Hansen]

Dear Members of Surfbirs.com,
My name is Keith Hansen and I am a wildlife illustrator who specilizes in the accurate and creative portrayal of birds. I have been birding since the 6th grade. I have a gallery in the little town of Bolinas in Marin County, California near the well known Point Reyes Peninsula. I am also very interested in keeping a yard list. My list of birds seen from my gallery is now (as of Jan. 2008) 212 species and our yard list is now at 272 species. Our house is located at the mouth of the Bolinas Lagoon. I would invite other yard listers to contact me with their lists.
Best wishes!
Keith

Hi Keith, a very warm welcome to the forum. Been a fan or your artwork for many years. Great yard list with a nice array of eastern warblers there - Blackburnian and Prothonotory! Looking forward to your next book, Birds of the Sierra Nevada. Best, Andy

Hi Keith. How's it going? I heard Daryl visited the gallery recently. I'll have to get out there to visit sometime soon. My girlfriend bought me your print of the Red-Shouldered Hawk for Christmas. I really love it.
