Northern Exposures: Birds and Wildlife From the Far North, Kevin Watson
Birder and photographer Kevin Watson presents a photographic journey across the northern latitudes of North America and Europe, from Alaska through northern Canada and across to Svalbard, in the far north of Europe, in search of birds and wildlife. Birds visit these high latitudes in summer.
In this live presentation, we’ll see shorebirds, waterfowl and more in breeding plumage, as well as animal residents such as walrus, arctic fox and seals. The arctic is home to the world’s largest land carnivore, the polar bear, and Kevin has spent many hours watching, learning about and photographing these charismatic apex predators, and he will be sharing some of his best images.
The new Allendale Community Center is located at 210 West Crescent Avenue, Allendale, NJ 07401. Park in front of the building and enter through the main double doors in the center of the building.
