A Trip to the Adirondacks – Photographing Wildlife with BCC’s Matt Malwitz
The Adirondacks are a magical place for photographers. From stunning vistas, to wildlife like Black Bear, Bald Eagle and Moose, the Adirondacks have it all. While these mountains are home to some of the Northeast’s largest wildlife, it’s the small creatures that drove Bergen County Camera’s Matt Malwitz up there. One bird in particular actually did the trick. The Canada Jay to be exact. What’s a Canada Jay, you may ask? Check out Canada Jays, Red Squirrels & More: A trip to the Adirondacks to find out!
