Dianne Taggart, a native Long Islander and has been an avid member of the Long Island birding community for over twenty years She developed an interest when cleaning oiled birds while on a marine mammal stranding team. She has a wealth of knowledge about LI birds and ran the former LIBirds website for over ten years (and now runs the LI Birds Facebook Group).

When not adding a life bird to her list, she curls up with a good book or takes a stroll through the woods.
