FCCP Flight Night at Safety Harbor Marina & Sunset

http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/7/c/600_312780892.jpeg

Every other Thursday night we'll meet up to practice Bird in Flight (BIF) photography. You can also practice other forms of photography, such as Dragon Fly in Flight (DIFF), or Squirrel in Flight (SIF). Just kidding, you're welcome to shoot what you want, and instruction will be given when requested.

The new wildlife boardwalk is open and can offer great views of waders such as White Ibis, Spoonbill, Egrets and Herons.

This a great opportunity to photograph the many herons, egrets and ibis' as they head to Cooper's Bayou to roost. Occasionally we see Spoonbills and other species as well. This can provide very stunning shots if the setting sun cooperates.

Please park in the marina parking lot, it's FREE!

After the PhotoWalk we'll head to the BBQ place for a snack and some sharing of photos. No food or beverage purchase required.
