This is terrible news. Washington's birding community has certainly lost one of its greatest members.

In recent years, due to starting a family and caring for a house, I have been unable to spend but a fraction of the many hours in the field birding that I use to do. In the few times a year that I did manage to get out I would still run into Ruth and Patrick 2-3 times a year. I will certainly miss these chance in counters with Patrick. We are lucky that Patrick left us with a legacy of many stunning rarities and a multitude of even more stunning photographs. Rest in peace Patrick.
