Monthly Meetings

Monday 19th August 2024 @ 7.30pm

Guest: Maan Alkaisi

Topic: Chasing birds of Queensland

After working for 42 years, I retired two years ago. I decided to do something different than what I did in my academic and research work. I started photography, mainly wildlife but especially birds. This allowed me to discover beautiful places: lakes, rivers, estuaries, forests and hills within New Zealand and some parts of Australia.

I am fascinated by the beauty of birds, their colours, their songs, and their behaviour. There is no feeling like taking a sharp photo of a rare bird in its natural habitat. Photography is capturing a moment, freezing that moment forever, and enjoying the experience.

Supper: Nadine Campbell and Pam Cumming
