Upon retiring from the Defense industry, Mr. Lewis' hobbies of gardening, landscaping and birding were focused on creating a backyard wildlife habitat to attract a myriad of birds to his residential yard. The yard provides the  perfect backdrop for photographing many different species of birds.
Mr. Lewis' successful efforts resulted in certification from the National Wildlife Federation (NWF), as a Backyard Wildlife Habitat. For inquiries regarding this event please call:       256-233-7408  or   256-998-0232
