Bob Speare has enjoyed an affinity with the natural world since he was very young. Growing up in western Massachusetts, he spent summers at his family’s cottage on a quiet lake, where he enjoyed exploring birds, insects, fish, frogs, snakes, plants and more.
After receiving a BS in biology and a short time with the Smithsonian Institution, Bob spent the next 25 years with the Massachusetts Audubon Society, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm for birds and nature with people of all ages. Music and photography have been an artistic outlet for most of his life, and now through carving and sculpture, Bob continues to explore his deep connection with birds and other wildlife.
