Carl has put his heart and soul into creating a backyard bird haven known as The Nut House. For the past 10-plus years, Carl has used his knowledge of plants and landscaping in designing and building his backyard bird oasis. He has been busy adding a wide variety of native plants, perennial flowers, and natural water features. The diverse habitat he has created continues to draw a wider variety of birds each year. His love for bird photography has led him to become passionate about wildlife habitat conservation and restoration. He hopes to inspire others to make their own backyards a friendlier place for birds and other wildlife.
