Spend a full day photographing the birds of Lake Apopka with lifelong bird photography instructor Milton Heiberg. Wander the new Lake Apopka Loop Trail, expanding over the north shore of Lake Apopka with more than 10 miles of 360-degree vistas, including ponds, canal waterways and the shores of the lake itself. Ever since the Lake Apopka North Shore restoration, this area has become a birder’s paradise. We will have continuous photo-ops of many species, including wading birds, passerines, gallinules, raptors and especially osprey carrying or eating a fish.

  • Lunch will be provided at the Lakeside Pavilion. Workshop includes classroom preparation January 11, 7-8 pm, and a photo review on January 18, 6-8 pm at Jessie Brock Community Center in Winter Garden.
  • Camera.
