In 2007 I attempted a Delmarva Photo Big Year in an effort to raise money for the American Bird Conservacy and their junin Grebe Project. The Junin Grebe is endemic to Peru and lives on only one lake in central Peru. Due to habitat destruction and pollution the species has declined almos to the point of extinction. ABC is taking measures to save this critically endangered bird and i wanted to help out. By taking pledges I raised money by trying to photograph every bird, mammal, reptile & amphibian, butterfly, dragonfly, and damselfly on the Delamarva Peninsula. I set a goal of 400 (out of almost 700) species but unfortunately fell three short with a total of 397. It was a fun project and I want to thank everyone who helped and made a pledge.
