Bird Photography For Beginners in Maine

There’s this actually really cool event happening called, Feathers & Feeders: Backyard Bird Photography for Beginners, according to Maine Public. It’s happening at at Fields Pond Audubon Center on May 6th and 13th from 3:30–4:30 p.m. The event costs $15.

According to the site, you’ll be guided by nature photographer L’aura Bradford, who is basically going to show you how to stop taking blurry bird pics and start capturing legit, magical, frame-worthy photographs.

Maine Public goes on to say, 

"You’ll learn about lens choice, camera settings, focusing techniques, composition, and how to capture birds both perched and in flight. We’ll also cover how to set up natural-looking perches, attract birds ethically, and develop fieldcraft skills for better photos"
