At the heart of these images and stories is love for the living descendants of dinosaurs as they soar and parade, and awe at their ephemerality and endurance. Evans’s photos highlight the wonder of a world on the wing and the rich biodiversity of Bay Area birds.About the SpeakersDick Evans became interested in photography as a graduate student at Stanford University and continued his practice throughout a forty-seven-year career in the global metals industry that took him all over the world.
