Calling all nature and wildlife photographers! 📸🦉🦅

Join us Saturday, September 5, for a morning of nature and raptor photography presented by the City of Powell Parks & Recreation Department.

Local photographer Dave Liggett will lead an introductory photography workshop featuring live owls and other raptor ambassadors from the Ohio School of Falconry. You’ll have the opportunity to practice getting some great close-up shots while learning helpful nature photography techniques (and a little about these amazing birds and the sport of falconry as well).

After the workshop, you can head outside for a guided nature hike and put those new skills to work.

The program runs from 9:00–11:00 AM at the Village Green Municipal Building. Cost is $30 for Powell residents and $36 for non-residents.

Space is limited, so register through Powell Parks & Recreation using program code 26F-LW05.

The Whimbrel
An elegant, brownish shorebird with a very long, curved bill, the Whimbrel announces itself with effervescent, piping calls. It occupies open habitats—tundra for nesting; and mudflats, beaches, and saltmarshes the rest of the year. Whimbrels feed mostly on crabs and other marine invertebrates, which they extract from sand or mud using their outrageous bills. They also eat berries and insects when available. They migrate between arctic nesting areas and wintering grounds as far south as Bolivia, sometimes having to skirt hurricanes as they fly over open ocean.
Some migrating Whimbrels make a nonstop overwater flight of 4,000 km (2,500 miles) from southern Canada or New England to South America. The oldest recorded Whimbrel was at least 14 years old when it was recaptured and rereleased in Manitoba.
