Conservation Through the Lens: The journey of a wandering nature photographer, with Josiah Patrick
Sunday, June 23, 2024
3:30 PM
Manuel's Tavern
Free to attend, but registration is requested
Join bird and nature photographer Josiah Patrick for a discussion of the lessons he has learned about the power of community level conservation and the majestic species found throughout his journey birding and shooting in North and Central America, and his home country of Trinidad and Tobago. Josiah will share a variety of images of the stunning fauna and flora found during his travels to highlight the importance of habitat, conservation, and community in its preservation.
Josiah Patrick is a nature photographer, school counselor and budding naturalist. An immigrant from Trinidad and Tobago, Josiah has always felt a unique connection to nature. His journey as a 1st generation immigrant led to him searching for a place that felt like home in a space that often felt unfamiliar. This eventually led to long walks in the woods surrounded by strange, beautiful noises and creatures that recalled distant memories of home. After receiving a camera, he was able to explore an even closer inspection of the beautiful fauna and flora that inhabited these spaces. Inspired to aid in its preservation. Josiah uses his photography to help share a love and deeper understanding of the bird and animal species seen during his journey to natural spaces around the world. He aims to offer a colorful perspective about his journey and hopes to inspire others to do small acts of conservation within their own communities.
