I was born in Dallas ,Texas, but moved around alot from town to town as a child.Mostly around the state of Texas , but lived over seas in Tehran,Iran for almost 4 years back in the 70's . I was married at age 16 to my wonderful husband of 24 years.And at age19 , we had our first and only child, a son .In the early 90's I moved to South Texas for better job oppertunities, and have lived here since then. I was recently diagnosed with rhumatiod artheritis in 80% of my body,which has slowed me down some ,but still am actively working with communities and other groups of individuals to save and preserve the natural wildlife resources and habbitats.I monitor and record migrating birds.
