Klaus Girk has been a member since 10 November 2007 and goes by Fred.
Currently in Westminster, CO.
I am retired but do a lot of volunteer work for Eldorado Canyon State Park and the Birds of Prey Foundation here in Colorado. I enjoy fishing, photography, reading and visiting with old friends as well as making new ones. I also enjoy pyrography which is the art of woodburning. With this I make images of animals and people and sometimes add a small battery operated clock.
