Cayuga Bird Club webinars are open to the public. Melissa will share stories and photos about some of her favorite birds in East Africa, drawing from her visits while leading photo tours in Tanzania, as well as from her time in Uganda on assignment for a magazine. About the Speaker: Melissa Groo is a wildlife photographer, writer, and conservationist with a passion for educating people about the marvels of the natural world. She believes that photography can be both fine art and a powerful vehicle for storytelling, and considers herself a “wildlife biographer” as much as a wildlife photographer. It is her mission to raise awareness and change minds about not only the extrinsic beauty of animals, but also their intrinsic worth. Melissa is a contributing editor to Audubon magazine, and advises the National Audubon Society on photography content. She’s helped them develop an online resource on bird photography tips and techniques, and also advises them on ethics in photography, beginning with the co-authoring of Audubon’s landmark "Guide to Ethical Bird Photography." Melissa is an Associate Fellow with the International League of Conservation Photographers. She is also teaching a new online course on bird photography at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. The December 14th webinar will begin with the speaker's presentation, followed by Cayuga Bird Club's regular meeting.
