Hello! Welcome to my page.


Sword-billed hummingbird
The sword-billed hummingbird (Ensifera ensifera) is a neotropical species of hummingbird from the Andean regions of South America. Among the largest species of hummingbird, it is characterized by its unusually long beak, being the only bird to have a beak longer than the rest of its body, excluding the tail. It uses this to drink nectar from flowers with long corollas and has coevolved with the plant Passiflora mixta. While most hummingbirds preen using their beaks, the sword-billed hummingbird uses its feet to scratch and preen due to its beak being so long.Photograph credit: Andy Morffew

  • I am an Episcopalian, and strongly so. We are at least fourth-generation Episcopalians. But I am by no means an expert on religion, despite being a church-goer for all my life, and even attending (briefly) an Episcopal school. But I do study and am passionately interested in this wonderful and vibrant religion. I help around the church from time to time, and can swing a thurible and can carry a virge.
  • I am college educated. I have three college degrees relating to international business and international economics. Despite having a high GPA, I can still do some really stupid things.
  • I also know a bit of Spanish, and had many hours of formal education in it. But I don't get to use it often, so I have forgotten a great deal. :(
  • I am carnivor and have the cholesterol to prove it. (Cholestrol test came back with score of 234! Not too bad!)
