Our next meeting will be Tuesday September 9th from 6:30pm to 8:30pm in the Mellon Room at the Northeast Harbor Library and via zoom.

Presentation

Discover the Owls of New England. In this captivating presentation, Peter delivers stunning photographs of his favorite owls combined with stories that entertain, educate and inspire the audience. You’ll learn the secrets Peter uses to find and photograph these same owls in the wild in their natural habitat! Eight species of expected owls in New England include: Great Horned, Barred, and Eastern Screech – all year-round residents and fairly easy to spot. Long-eared, Short-eared, and Snowy are winter migrants and breed far north of us. Northern Saw-whet Owls do breed in New England but are quite small and rarely seen. Barn Owls have bred in New England but are the toughest of all to find. He’ll wrap up this exceptional wildlife program with beautiful images of two vagrant migrants- a rare visitor called the Great Gray, and another named the Northern Hawk Owl

Peter, known as the Owl Whisperer, is a wildlife photographer from Cherryfield, Maine..  He enjoys photographing the birds and animals that regularly visit his 10 acres in the wilderness. His favorite time of day to take pictures is at dusk, when the creatures of the forest such as coyote, owl, hermit thrush and whip-poor-will are most active.
