Join professional photographer Milton Heiberg for a day of photography at a 140-acre bird sanctuary in Rockledge, Florida. The highlight of this workshop will be photographing the endangered but friendly Florida Scrub Jays. These unique birds are endemic to Florida, intelligent, and family oriented. One of them may size you up and decide to perch on your head.

Most of the day will be at the sanctuary, but if time permits, we may visit the nearby Viera Wetlands refuge.

Demonstrations, lunch, and follow-up review are included.
