Retirement Announcement
Press Release: Lake Wales, Florida. April 1, 2015
In a press conference on Tuesday, March 31, 2015, held in the offices of the Lake Wales Ledger, noted bird and nature photographer Arthur Morris, who lives in nearby Indian Lake Estates, announced that he is retiring from bird photography effective immediately. “Too many e-mails to answer. Too many blog posts to do. Too many eGuides that need updating. Too much travel. Too many hacks leading photo tours. Too, too, too…. I’ve had it!”
He plans to work on his golf game to the point where he is good enough to try to earn a spot on the PGA Champions (Seniors) Tour and to spend a lot more time in his pool. Steve Inglima, a spokesman for Canon USA’s Explorer’s of Light program said, “While Arthur has been an exemplary ambassador for Canon for nearly 20 years, sometimes it is time to move on. We wish him the very best and thank him for his services. I sure hope he can putt.” Izzy Flammm, B&H Affiliates Account Manager, said in an e-mail, “That is one affiliate who will be sorely missed; the guy was a blogging machine!”
Both his right hand man, Jim Litzenberg, and his older of two daughters, Jennifer, the Executive Director of BIRDS AS ART, agreed by stating in synch: “It’s about time!”
Be sure to check the blog tomorrow for additional information. In the meantime, please understand that I am in good health and that I am of sound mind.
Puzzling Mystery #1
Yes, the snorkeling cap was on my head, but I had an excuse. When I started putting it on, I subconsciously velcroed the flaps together over the top of the cap. Since I was walking without any flapping, I never thought to look on my head. None-the-less things like that have been happening around here with increasing frequency….
