Viewing starts at 3:00PM\, and the panel begins at 7:00PM. The panel will be led by President of the Bergen County Audubon Society\, Don Torino\, and will include some of the featured photographers in the exhibit. They will be discussing our local raptor species and Teaneck’s position on a very important avian migration route. Snacks and refreshments will be provided! \n— \nIn partnership with the Bergen County Audubon Society\, and the Teaneck Creek Conservancy\, the Puffin Cultural Forum presents a photography exhibition celebrating the remarkable birds of prey that inhabit\, hunt\, and migrate through the landscape of New Jersey. The exhibition brings together the work of New Jersey-based photographers whose patience\, skill\, and deep knowledge of the natural world have yielded extraordinary images of the predators that fly in our skies. New Jersey sits at a critical juncture on the Atlantic Flyway\, one of North America’s great migratory corridors. From the broad tidal marshes of the Meadowlands to the forested ridgelines of the Highlands\, from the barrier beaches of the Shore to the urban canyons of its cities\, New Jersey supports a remarkable diversity of raptors across all four seasons. This exhibition invites visitors to see that world through the eyes of the photographers who know it best. \nThis exhibition is the brainchild of Don Torino\, the Bergen County Audubon Society (BCAS) President\, who brings a lifetime of field expertise and conservation advocacy to this collaboration. The BCAS and their passionate members include many of the photographers featured in the exhibition. Educational text developed in partnership with the BCAS will accompany the exhibition\, giving knowledge and understanding of the species represented in the exhibition to the broader community and audiences. \nFeatured photographers include Jim Wright\, James Lignal\, James Falletti\, Alon Feder\, Linda Antenucci\, Dee De Santis\, & Don Torino. \nFREE\nRSVP below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Date: Friday\, May 1 \n \n \n Time: 7:00 PM \n \n Location: \n \n \n 20 Puffin Way \n \n Teaneck \n \n New Jersey \n \n 07666 \n \n \n \n Cost: Free \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Add to calendar \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n Google Calendar \n\n \n\n \n iCalendar \n\n \n\n \n Outlook 365 \n\n \n\n \n Outlook Live \n\n \n\n \n Export .ics file \n\n \n\n \n Export Outlook .ics file \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Prepare For Your Visit\nGot your reservations?
