For Seniors Only - Ty Smedes - Loons

Event Summary

As an icon of the north-country, the Loon has created magic for all who have enjoyed his antics and that magical “call of the wild”. Join local writer/photographer Ty Smedes as he lectures about the life history of the Loon, and shares many stunning images.  Smedes has made many trips to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of northern Minnesota, where he has captured iconic images of a female loon, on the nest, with youngsters riding on her back, and even the male feeding the young, as they rest there. Ty will also show how a nature photographer pre-visualizes and plans a wilderness photography trip.  Join us for an exciting and educational presentation!   The program will be followed by a catered lunch and social time.  Cost is $5.00 for nature center members and $7.00 for nonmembers.  Please call 423-5309 by April 8 to register.
