Tom Myers is an elementary school teacher and birder who lives in Oregon. He began birding in 2017 after he bought a kayak and started noticing birds while he paddled. Since then, he finds and photographs birds whenever possible. When he's not teaching or birding, Tom stays busy reading, beekeeping and baking. His bird photography and links to his “Bird of the Week” videos can be found on his website, www.birdertom.com. His favorite bird is the Short-eared Owl.
