Chris Scott is a year-round resident of Martha’s Vineyard, an island with coastlines on three bodies of water; the Atlantic Ocean and the Vineyard and Nantucket Sounds. The island’s abundance of natural areas, ranging from beaches to tidal estuaries, fresh and saltwater ponds, sandplains, fields and forests, creates an ideal habitat for a wide diversity of birds and wildlife. Avian subjects are Chris’ primary focus.

Many of the photographs displayed here were taken on the Vineyard - others are from visits to State and National Parks across the country. All images were taken with Canon equipment; R7 and R5 cameras, RF 100-400mm and 100-500mm lenses + 1.4x teleconverter.

Chris adheres to the wildlife photography guidelines recommended by the National Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
