Music

I play cello, mini-cello (viola) and sing a bit.  Recently, I have been playing with Celtic, 'bluegrass', Quebec, Swedish, and other folk musicians. I sometimes play in a 'band' with a group of other biologists/forest scientists called either the Outliers or the Residuals depending on how we are feeling.

Art

I have dabbled in various forms of visual art and photography. See Thermokarst the Dragon.

Sport

As a field ecologist, I have a fondness for outdoor pursuits including hiking, kayaking, and camping.  I once fenced in the Ontario Varsity Athletics League with our team even winning a bronze metal when others were a no-show due to a snow storm and I am not very talented at but enjoy greatly the game of squash.
