Birds of Prey: Raptors in Flight

Join us for a special workshop with a licensed falconer and photograph her birds of prey in flight, up close!


Key topics for this session:

  • Stopping fast action
  • Tracking focus and camera focus options to help you
  • Animal behavior & anticipating the action
  • Composition, light, and creativity


Class size is very limited, we can not overbook this session.

Gear to consider:


  • Interchangeable-lens camera - Most all-in-one type cameras aren't quite fast enough!
  • Fast telephoto lens - e.g. 70-200mm f/2.8, 100-400mm or equivalent. We'll be pretty close to the birds, so you won't need a really long lens like you'd usually use for birding. You can leave the 600mm with teleconverter at home.
  • Fast spare memory cards - we'll be on continuous shooting mode a lot! Plan to take hundreds of photos to get a few good ones.
  • Extra batteries
  • Monopod if you're worried about the weight of your camera, or to assist with panning.
