Join local photographer and birder, Matthew Bode in this presentation exploring the diversity of shorebirds that migrate through and live-in Vermont.

Matthew Bode has been a lifelong lover of wildlife. Since watching National Geographic and searching for lions, tigers, and bears in his backyard as a youngster, he’s never really grown out of being that boy. Matthew discovered birdwatching with his Grandpa as a kid and picked it up again as an adult. After his wife bought him his first camera, he started using photography to identify birds and document the experience. More recently, photography has become the focus, while still enjoying the experience of spending time with wildlife.
