“Where to Photograph Wildlife Locally”
by Dave Jacobson

A teacher at Prospect High School for 30 years, Dave Jacobson entered a second career as a photographer after retiring from public education in 2014.  He started working as a photographer at high school events in the Northwest Suburbs through Visual Image Photography.  At the same time he began shooting landscape and travel photography, but when travel became difficult during the pandemic, wildlife photography became his primary focus.  As he visited local forest preserves and nature centers, he developed an interest in birds and other wildlife.  A volunteer at the Buddy Foundation several days a week, Dave also photographs new dogs and cats for the Foundation’s adoption website. His work has been published in the Cook County Forest Preserve calendar, the Theodore Roosevelt National Park Calendar, and the Daily Herald.

Join us (and bring a friend) as Dave shares his favorite wildlife locations and offers tips on photographing the wildlife of northeastern Illinois…with a few bonus wildlife areas included.

Our next meeting is Competition Night – Wednesday, February 2, 2022. Competition is open to all paid members.
