BY CHENOA PIERCE VILLAGER STAFF WRITER EASTFORD — Photographer Bruce QUIET CORNER CHRONICLES Lippincott grew up fascinated by nature. As a child, he used to feed birds, identify them with his mother and BRUCE LIPPINCOTT aunt, and would spend all the time he could exploring the world around him. “Nature has always been my thing,” he said. Growing up, Lippincott’s destiny never seemed to be in photography, or so he thought. “When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be a scientist,” he said. Becoming a scientist seemed to be his lifelong dream, until he entered his freshman year of college and began taking every biological science class he could get his hands on. It was during Bruce Lippincott photos this time that Lippincott said he began to realize that maybe being a scientist Above and below: Example of Lippincott’s photography. wasn’t for him. “I rapidly discovered that I don’t image in it make a strong statement.” think like a scientist,” he said.

May 2. This new $1.7 million facility and the seven large animal veterinarians who prac- tice there are helping address the national shortage of large animal and livestock vet- erinarians, as well as help keep New England dairy farming going. It offers a haul-in service for outpatient care of livestock, which helps farmers from even greater distances utilize Tufts services and clinicians. The school’s ambulatory service, which began in 1980, treated about 40,000 animals in 2007. Paula Vail-Gerard, business manager for the service, said approximately 3,880 calls were billed last year. Also, with the new haul-in service and its convenience for farmers to pull in and out of the entryway Matt Sanderson photo with their large livestock to be treated, she said it now sees an average between 15 to 20 Left: This is the newest and most important addition to the Ambulatory Service building for Tufts University’s Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine.
