About Me

Kenneth Cole Schneider: Virtual New Mexican, lives in Connecticut and remembers growing up, birding and practicing family medicine in New Jersey, finds birds and beauty close to home. A lifelong birder and retired physician, I grew up and began my practice in New Jersey. After my career in the US Public Health Service, my wife Mary Lou and I retired to the mountains of New Mexico, where we led bird walks at Rio Grande Nature Center and the US Forest Service. The cooperative rosy-finch feeding project we initiated at Sandia Crest has developed into a major banding and research program. In 2004 we moved to South Florida, where we led nature walks and worked to create a Bald Eagle sanctuary to protect this species' first active nest in Broward County since before DDT was banned. In 2021 we moved to Glastonbury, Connecticut. I took up photography in 2008 and enjoy finding beauty in birds and nature close to home. Read more here
