Backroad discoveries and photography program

Join Ted Reichert, an avid bird and wildlife photographer, at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 9, to learn how he has worked to improve his skills for the challenges of bird photography.

Presented by Last Chance Audubon Society, this program will be held at Montana Wild Auditorium, 2668 Broadwater Ave.

Reichert discovered locations close to Helena where he could perfect his photography of skittish and fast-moving birds. Using his exceptional photographs, he will describe the amazing diversity of birds in the area and his discoveries of many common and not so common birds and wildlife.
