Donald Ian Mackenzie Wallace (14 December 1933 – 4 November 2021), known as Ian Wallace, D.I.M. Wallace,[1][2][3] or by his initials DIMW,[4] was a British birder, author and artist.

Early life

[edit]

Wallace was born on 14 December 1933 in Norfolk, England, to Scottish parents. He was educated at Loretto School, near Edinburgh.[5] Early in the 1950s, he undertook National Service with the King's African Rifles in Kenya.[5]

Career

[edit]

Wallace was the second chairman of the British Birds Rarities Committee[6] and was a contributing author to The Birds of the Western Palearctic.

In 1963, Wallace was among a party of birders,[7] led by Guy Mountfort[8] and including Julian Huxley,[8] George Shannon[7] and, James Ferguson-Lees,[7] that made the first ornithological expedition to Azraq in Jordan.[7] The expedition's recommendations eventually led to the creation of the Azraq Wetland Reserve and other protected areas.[9] Papers from the expedition are in the United Kingdom's National Archives.[10] He identified at least four species previously unknown in Nigeria.[11]

He was the Honorary Life President of Flamborough Ornithological Group (since 2000), and of Flamborough Bird Observatory.[12]

Wallace appeared as a guest on BBC Radio 4's Saving Species, discussing his October 1960 observations of the visible migration of birds over London, on their 50th anniversary.[13]

He was described as "one of the very top ornithologists in the UK",[14] "one of the great names of British bird-watching",[15] by the BBC as "a pioneer of ornithology [in the United Kingdom]",[13] and by Mark Cocker as both "one of the godfathers of modern birding"[4] and "the grand old man of birds".[16]

Wallace lived in Staffordshire. He died on 4 November 2021, at the age of 87.[17][18][5] A five-page obituary was published in British Birds.[19]
