Hummingbirds Up Close website coming soon
Hi, I'm Eric Pittman
Conservationist & Hummingbird Cinematographer
I spent decades in cockpits and high-pressure sales until I found a 3-gram cure for burnout. Today, I use a Pilot’s Eye to document the unseen miracles of the West Coast forest.
I have documented the entire life cycles of over 130 nests and identified more than 250 individual birds. My work—including the award-winning film The Bird in My Backyard—is the result of 16 years of quiet attention.
My website is currently under construction.
If you are reaching out regarding a keynote, film licensing, or anything else, please contact me directly:
TEDx Talk
Meet Bailey, the one-legged hummingbird that taught me what it means to be resilient.
