Join OM SYSTEM Rep Joel Quiggin and NCE photo experts for a morning of bird and nature photography at Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve in Savage, MN, on Saturday, May 3rd.
Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve is a hidden gem in Northeast Scott County, offering a peaceful wilderness filled with glacial ridges, rolling hills, and dense forest. This largely undeveloped park provides a prime habitat for a variety of wildlife, making it an ideal destination for nature photographers and birdwatchers alike. Designated an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society, the park is home to numerous woodland songbirds and other native species.
We’ll meet at the Murphy-Hanrehan Trailhead for a brief orientation before heading out to explore and capture images of the park’s diverse birdlife and landscapes. Our team of experts will offer guidance on camera settings, lens choices, and composition, along with tips and techniques to enhance your birding and nature photography. Whether you’re looking to refine your skills or simply enjoy a morning immersed in nature, we’re here to help!
