Richard Crossley

Richard Crossley is an internationally acclaimed birder and photographer. He first came to the US from England as a 21-year old and almost immediately became well-known for discovering "The Dyke" at Cape May and identifying passerines flying overhead.

After 20 years hiding in the business world and raising a family, Richard set himself a huge new goal - to popularize birding and the outdoors through books and multi-media. By making nature more fashionable, he hopes to encourage more of today's youth to become the game-changers of tomorrow.

Based on what we now know about the brain and learning, he believes the design of "The Crossley ID Guide" will help people improve their ID skills and change the design of all nature books. Constantly thinking outside the box and with five books, a TV series on the horizon and other business projects, he believes the future is an adventure - a busy one! www.crossleybirds.com
