Corpus Christi, TX
Angie Birmingham, Jeff Birmingham
Your instructors will be Jeff and Angie Birmingham both are PPA Members working on thier master Photography degree. We will cap the class at 8 people because we will need to carpool with each other to minimize the amount of cars at the locations due to limited parking at the birding spots. We will meet at Starbucks at 5:30am and will depart at 6:00am to make the sunrise. The class will be split into 2 times from Sunrise to 10-11 am. We can eat lunch as a group after photographing at our favorite Mexican food restaurant on the Island. We will then meet up again 4 pm to sunset till about 8 pm total class time 8 plus hours if you attend both am and pm class. I split it up because we are outdoors for the whole class and in south Texas midday heats are very hot at times and the lighting is very harsh and the heatwave in your photos will be bad. After sunrise we will head out to some of our favorite spots for bird photography. This will require some walking some trials can be a 2 mile walk out and back if we go the whole distance. We will have options for those who do not want to walk the full distance. We will go over Landscape photography and Bird photography technics. We will photograph Raptors, cardinals, green jays warblers and many others. Shorebirds Like reddish egrets, Egret, Snowy egret, spoonbills, Herons, pelicans and many others. It is the migration time so there is no telling what you might see. I will have a ice chest with water and a few snacks for everyone to enjoy. If you have a favorite drink or snack please bring it. You can always toss in my Ice chest.
