PRIVATE LOUISIANA GULF COAST BIRDS PHOTO WORKSHOP
Select your dates • Private tour • No groups
Mid April marks the return of birds to the Gulf States as they continue their spring migration north to summer nesting grounds or settle in for the summer to raise their young. Join me for a day or a full weekend of photographing a wide assortment of birds in southern Louisiana. The tour is customized to your interests so choose shore birds, wading birds, nesting birds, urban birds or a combination. Potential birds include a wide range — songbirds, marsh birds, shore birds, and may include common terns, roseate spoonbills, reddish egrets, scarlet tanagers, black skimmers, brown pelicans, white ibis, black-bellied whistling ducks, wood ducks and more.
I will take individuals out to photograph birds in the southern Louisiana area. Each person can select the day(s) they want to go out and then the destination will be selected based on what they want to photograph. Each date is one destination but multiple days for multiple locations or the same location can be purchased. Location options will be provided after registration.
