Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we photograph at Great Meadows Wildlife Refuge in Concord, MA. On this walk, we will have numerous shooting opportunities, particularly a chance to photograph the wildlife–birds, ducks, eagles, and more. Photographers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend!

Great Meadows Wildlife Refuge is a National Wildlife Refuge and river wetlands conservation area, home to a variety of waterfowl and birds, as well as other mammals, such as deer, foxes, beaver, and more. On this walk, we will explore the Refuge with the intention of photographing birds and other wildlife!

Please note: There will be a good amount of walking on this Photo Walk. Nothing too treacherous, but make sure to wear comfortable shoes!
