Timing & Location when Birding

October 17, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

For the October program for Piney Woods, Paul Gregg will be presenting “Timing & Location when Birding including Lower Rio Grande Valley Bird Photos”. Paul will share strategies on how to be successful birding and ultimately taking photos. He’ll be showing many of his bird photos from his and Carol’s November 2022 trip to various locations in the Rio Grande Valley (RGV) area to search for birds. Birding the Rio Grande Valley is claimed to be where the Lone Star State’s birding is at its best. The area is a major migration corridor and an excellent location for tropical species extending their range beyond Mexico. Paul will show photos of various birds they found during the 4 or 5 days they were there. The program takes place on Tuesday, October 17th, at 6:30 p.m. with social time at 6 p.m.

Paul Gregg is an avid, amateur photographer interested mostly in birds, wildlife, and travel/landscapes. He has given presentations to a number of wildlife and photography groups, but has also given basic photography lessons to Lone Star College’s “Adult Lifelong Learning” classes.. He is retired from the Adult Probation Department of Harris Co., TX. Before that, he retired from a little over 29 years in the U. S. Air Force (active and reserve). He’s married to Carol Anderson Gregg, who accompanies him on most of his photography outings.

The October program for PWWS will be ONLY in-person and takes place on Tuesday, October 17th, at 6:30 p.m. (snacks & social time at 6:00 p.m.) at Dennis Johnston’s Big Stone Lodge.  Please join us at the Big Stone Lodge located in Dennis Johnston County Park at 709 Riley Fuzzel Road, Spring, Texas 77373.
