Behind the Lens: Adventures in Wildlife Photography

Tuesday, March 24, 2026 | 1:00 PM

Step into the wild through the eyes of an expert.

Join John Nelson, President of Audubon of Martin County, professional wildlife photographer, and creator of The Audubon Moment, for a fascinating look at the art, patience, and adventure behind capturing extraordinary moments in nature.

John is a Florida Master Naturalist, educator, and conservation advocate whose work has helped thousands of people better understand birds and wildlife.
