SEPTEMBER

September 12 - COMBINED BIRD WALK AND PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION

Join Joseph Youngman, bird man of Chassell, and Michael Shupe, outdoor photographer, for a combined birding walk and outdoor photography session on the evening of September 12^th, from 6 to 9 pm.

We’ll meet at the Einerlei and carpool to the Arnheim portion of the Sturgeon River Sloughs Wildlife Area 10 miles south of Chassell.  Bring sturdy walking shoes, drinking water, a flashlight or head lamp, and a jacket for the cool evening.

The birding portion of the event will include a level walk of about a mile and a half to watch hundreds of Sandhill Cranes, ducks, and geese fly in to roost.  Bring binoculars if possible.

This early fall photography session will help you get ready for the approaching autumn color photography season.  Bring your camera and your camera instruction manual.  You also may find use for a polarizing filter and tripod if you have one.

Those attending may choose to participate in one or both activities.   The photography portion does not have to include a long walk, whereas the birding portion will be a longer, farther trip. (Please note that the photography session is not necessarily designed for bird photography which would require powerful lenses.)   In case of rain, the photography portion might be cancelled but the birding walk will continue.  Mike will accompany the walk and answer questions concerning photography.

The Einerlei will make a donation to the Manitou Island Bird Survey Project through the CC Audubon Club.  Participants may wish to make their own donations.

Please call Nancy at 906-523-4612 for more information or email shop@einerlei.com.
