Conservancy Day: Urban Raptors Through Wildlife Photography

Event Dates

  • Thursday, 10/17/2019 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Event Description

Have you wondered about the hawks, owls, and falcons that live with us in Madison and is suburban neighborhoods? Are you interested in photographing wildlife? Please join Ruth Smith as she brings us up close and personal with these amazing birds through her beautiful photography. She will discuss one of the most common raptors that we see – the red-tailed hawk, the peregrine falcons that live near the Capital building, and how to find great horned owls. She will give tips on wildlife photography and answer questions about her four year adventure into photographing the wild things around us.
