About Elliott

Elliott Ress is a Filipino-American birder and ornithologist. He graduated from Cornell University with distinction in research working at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Elliott has been exploring the Flathead Valley for 11 years and is enjoying every moment he spends here. His love and passion for birds started right here in the Flathead, when he got lost in the beauty of a flock of White-winged Crossbills. From that endearing moment on, he made a promise to himself that he would give his life to birds by spreading conservation efforts and encouraging others to go outside and experience the wonders of the bird world. Elliott is also a published author and has done extensive field work across North America.
