AMONG THE WINDS THAT SHAPE THE DUNES AND THE PLANTS THAT RESIST IN THIS LANDSCAPE, WE CAN OBSERVE DIFFERENT SPECIES OF BIRD. IN ESTUARIES THAT FLOW INTO THE OCEAN, THE ABUNDANCE OF FOOD ATTRACTS OTHER SPECIES.

The Mindelo Reserve is a vital sanctuary for many bird species, functioning as a feeding, nesting and resting point for resident and migratory birds. On the way out, participants will have the opportunity to see and photograph a variety of birds, from passerines to waterfowl. Participants will learn techniques specific to bird photography, such as using telephoto lenses, setting up a camera for quick capture, and approaching silently to minimize disturbance to the animals. Tours include visits to privileged observation points within the reserve, maximizing sighting and image capture opportunities. This program is ideal for those who want to develop their photography skills and deepen their knowledge of local birdlife in a natural and preserved environment.

Since its inception, the Photographing the World series has taken photographers to some of the most beautiful locations around the world with landscape photographer Elia Locardi. Part educational photography tutorial video and part cultural adventure, Photographing the World has not only showcased some of Elia's most popular shooting and photo editing techniques but it also lets you experience the life of a full-time photographer who has made an incredible career out of travel and landscape photography. Fstoppers is excited to bring you the next extended adventure in the Photographing the World series as we head to the red deserts of the western United States and the exotic mountains of Patagonia in South America.
