It looks like they have some great workshops with people like Gene Bauer from Farm Sanctuary and Nicole Pollata from the Animal Legal Defense Fund (ALDF.). I recently received this email announcement. The conference is to be held from July 23-26 in Washington, DC. Someday, I hope to attend one of these conferences.

The Kathmandu Global Tiger Workshop declared 2010 to be the Year of the Tiger. The intention is to focus on saving the tiger species which is being decimated. I say so what? It's just lip service. China is the single biggest threat to the tiger and it won't participate seriously in its protection.

On the other hand, if I were to engage in actually drawing and painting birds, I think I would have to start with an actual in-person workshop, not even on bird art specifically, but an introductory course, just to get me familiar with the basics. Then again, I would not dream of attempting creating a block print without taking a workshop.

I give a lot of workshops all over the country. When I give workshops, I almost always have someone come up to me and tell me how much they have spent on a spotting scope and camera and that every photo they take is utter crap. It’s perfect for someone who is a wildlife watcher first and a photographer second.

Taking part in a wind farm development workshop in the Serbian Chamber of Commerce, I learned that no less than 8 construction permits are issued and that the Deliblato Sands should become encircled with wind generators from all sides. The last time I observed an Imperial Eagle here was in 2007, but that was a non-territorial, immature bird.

Just watching him bird and hearing his explanations was like an advanced workshop in birding. Get yourself to Cape May! And get out to Higbee Beach WMA in the early dawn hours and see and do birding at the highest possible level. You won’t regret it, even on a day with few birds, because you will learn just how good birders can get.
