Birds of Bosque del Apache
Photo Workshop

$1,445

Flight Destination: Albuquerque, NM

The best word to describe Bosque is WOW. Sunrise and thousands of birds taking flight at once is a sight to behold. One of the top birding locations in the country, Bosque is noted for its gathering of snow geese and sandhill cranes. Other animals include hawks, kestrels, coyotes, roadrunners and other waterfowl.

Some of the most incredible lighting at both sunrise and sunset can be found here and the opportunity with a pure orange sky before sunrise and thousands of birds makes for a sight and photo well worth the trip. Tips will also be provided on using flash well before sunrise to create some unique images as well.

Have you ever wanted to learn to do birds in flight photography. If so, this is the trip for you. There are several settings where the snow geese and sandhill cranes are in close proximity to get great flight shots. Learn tips and tricks for creating great flight shots. Numerous people have started out the trip having never taken a bird in flight photo and left with great flight shots, so you can count on this being a birds in flight photo workshop as well as just a great bird photography workshop. Silhouette flight techniqes will also be a big part of evening sessions to capture nice color in the background from the sky and water to accentuate the flight of the birds.

Besides the typical spots within the refuge, there are a couple of other locations we visit for great bird photography that many others have not found out about yet.
