Hello, my name is Dexter Patterson. My birding story started about a month after the pandemic shut everything down across the country, including here in Dane County. I have always been fascinated by birds, but I never gave my curiosity the attention it warranted for anything substantial to come of it. Suddenly, I found myself outdoors a lot and taking pictures of birds I seldom ever noticed before in my neighborhood with my iPhone.
