Hi! My name is Erin and I am a Certified Oregon Naturalist with passions for dragonflies and gardening for wildlife. We live in Portland, Oregon and when not at home in our garden, we are usually exploring Oregon’s ecoregions, with a keen eye for odonata, birds, herps, fungi and native plants.

Oregon Odonata: The Dragonflies and Damselflies around us
Odonata is one of my biggest passions and as we explore Oregon, we aim to capture portrait photography of every species in our state. I even give presentations on Oregon Odonata in my community to groups who wish to learn more about these amazing animals.
