LAFD remembers the bird photographs
Fire Paramedic Larry Redden of Los Angeles Fire Department Station 19, Brentwood, poses in his truck yesterday with my new book Backyard Bird Photography. Back in February, this fire truck stood in front of my house for a few hours as the fire department protected the area while the DWP arrived to fix an underground fire in the power cables. The fire department guys asked to see my bird photographs as we waited. I showed them a portfolio. Yesterday, Larry asked how the book was going, as we were both at the Mandeville Canyon Evacuation Drill (for possible fires) at Paul Revere Middle School. I said, “I have the book right here,” and pulled it out of my pack. Larry was so nice to pose for me. These are the true heroes. 
SAM’S CLUB BOOK CLUB HAS BACKYARD BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY
I just pre-ordered a few copies of the book from Sam’s Club. This might be a good place to buy books, especially since they bought out the first printing of mine.

Posing with two Backyard Bird Photography books
Having a little fun here, moments after taking the books out of the box. Always a great moment for an author.

Right in the garden where it all took place.
