Join photographer Greg DuBois (Will County Audubon Society), a regular contributor to Illinois Audubon magazine, for a bird photography workshop on-site at Amboy Marsh Nature Preserve. We will begin with a short briefing and Q&A indoors before setting out. Participants will then rotate every 90 minutes utilizing photo-blinds placed in three different habitats to provide a variety of bird species.
After lunch we will have the option to share a favorite photo and learn from others’ experience (please bring a laptop.) Photos may be eligible for inclusion in a future issue of Illinois Audubon magazine.
