Leader Details

Steve McMasters Steve discovered birding at the age of 10 when he borrowed a Peterson's Field Guide and a pair of binoculars from a family friend. A degree in Natural Resource Management led him to a career of environmental planning, from which he recently retired after 35 years. He has been a Central Coast resident for most of the last 40 years (with a stint in Central Oregon), and enjoys the outdoors including hiking, paddle boarding and spending time with his dog Lilly. He especially enjoys combining two of his favorite interests - travelling and birding.
