Event Details

The Lazy Birders are waking up early for a special treat - you! Join us at 6:45 a.m. for a sunrise Bird Photo Walk at the beautiful Cloisters Park, Morro Bay. We'll be in the perfect spot to photograph various birds, from sparrows and herons to shore birds. Our relaxed two-hour walk will be packed with chances to snap stunning photos of birds in different habitats, portraits, in flight, and displaying unique behaviors.

We aim to build a fun, supportive community where we can learn birding and photography techniques from one another. We will offer an optional post-walk online session to edit images and share what we have learned.
Our camera and birding gear: Body Sony Alpha 7 II body, Lens Sony FE 200-600mm, Tripod Sirui AM-225 Carbon Fiber Small, and Nocs Provisions Binoculars.

Ethical bird photography: We believe in capturing beautiful bird photos while respecting their space, keeping a gentle distance, and ensuring our presence doesn't disturb their habitat.

Meets at Cloisters Park. From Hwy 1 at the north end of Morro Bay, turn west (toward the water) at the San Jacinto traffic light, then take the first left (south) on Coral Avenue; in a few blocks enter the parking lot on the right, next to the restrooms.
