Mr. B and Students and Ken Malloy/Harbor Regional Park Restoration Site

Hi Guys, I have been teaching Middle School Science at Chadwick School for 29 years. I also coordinate the school's Environmental Service Program, I serve as Advisor to the MS Newspaper, and I teach a Senior Science Seminar class. My student volunteers work in Chadwick Canyon, a lovely 5-acre natural canyon adjacent to the school, restoring habitat, planting native plants, maintaining trails, and installing irrigation systems. Some of my volunteers include his current students, who do bird surveys (along with the entire seventh grade) regularly in the Chadwick Canyon. Like Mr. Miller, I am REALLY into birds; I have my own private bird guiding business on the side: lots of birding info, photos, and lists are available at my website (birdingsocal.com). I am first and foremost someone who loves his planet and every living thing on it, Because of this, I am active with the Palos Verdes South Bay Audubon Society, which is not only involved with bird walks and nature study, but also involved in local community environmental projects. I have a habitat restoration project with my students and other local students (especially a Korean group called the International Environmental Stewardship Club) at a place called Ken Malloy Harbor Regional Park. I lead restoration work at the site every month and also a bird and nature walk every month at the site.

I love Kimchi and a lot of other Korean Food. I also love Thai, Vietnamese, Sushi (but I don't eat endangered bluefin tuna), Chinese (especially Dim Sum) and anything my wife cooks. My dog and I like to howl together. When I am not teaching, I am birding, reading novels, watching TV with my wife, doing Pilates, Hot Yoga, Gyrotonics, or working out at the gym.

I hope that both Korea and the United States learn to appreciate the wildlife and their habitats and work harder to protect them.
