Hi,
My name is Tim Blackwood and I am from Cohasset, MN. This follows a move from my old address
in Grand Rapids, MN, about 10 miles away. This is actually more of a re-introduction, as I've
been a member for about 5 years. I signed off the list and rejoined due to some minor e-mail
problems. I was planning to switch over to another account, but the difficulties have been
remedied.
I'm a May 2004 graduate of Bemidji State University, located in beautiful northwestern
Minnesota, with a Masters degree in biology. My research there involved looking at bird
communities and their habitat preferences, but I've been a student and collector of shells since I
was 8 or 9 years old. I can't even begin to describe all the shells my collection contains, but
my recent favorite group has been the Strombidae. Their diversity of species and forms never
bores me. While I collect all members of Strombidae, I'm particular fascinated with members of
Lambis, Harpago, and Strombus (s.l.). Other groups of interest to me include Olividae,
Marginellidae (especially West African species), and Cypraeidae. But I love all shells. :)
Well, that's the re-introduction of who I am and what I collect in a nut shell. I've greatly
enjoyed many stimulating discussions in the past and look forward to more in the future. Bye for
now. :)
Sincerely,
Tim Blackwood
Timothy J. Blackwood
