My inability to focus

My interest in nature started with reptiles and amphibians when I was a teenager in the 1970´s. Then came birds, then vascular plants, then lichens, then trees...

In the 1980's I got involved in environmental issues, especially those related to conservation of forests and water ecosystems.

At the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (1988-2000) I had the privilege to do a lot of public-oriented extension work, and I also headed the research information at the faculty of forestry for a couple of years.

I have published some 350 popular and semi-popular papers on the topics below. Please let me know if you are interested in knowing more or getting a list of the titles!

* herpetological faunistics (Europe and North America)
* bird faunistics (Europe and North America)
* bird identification and birding
* waterfowl ecology
* forestry versus conservation
* dendrology
* floristics (Fennoscandia)
* nature travels (Europe and North America)
