Sunrise Wildlife on the Seashore

May 3
Narragansett, RI
$125/person

Join us for the start of a wonderful day at the ocean where we’ll photograph Gulls, Cormorants, and other wildlife while they begin their day

Gulls are very opportunistic hunters which will give us the opportunity to photograph them as they catch and feed on crabs, clams, fish and more. At this time of year, we may have the opportunity to see and photograph Cormorants, Loons, Egrets, Osprey, and Harbor Seals. All the wildlife at the ocean is most active two hours after sunrise as they look for food to start their day. It also would not be uncommon to have a commercial fishing vessel or two leaving or returning to port which presents a unique photographic opportunity.
