Just in time for Fall migration and colorful foliage, local author/photographer team Randi and Nic Minetor will present insights on birding in New England. The Minetors will share their experiences traveling throughout the region identifying and documenting birding locations. Their efforts culminated in the recently published Birding New England, A Field Guide to the Birds of Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. Their many books and guides are available locally at the Bird House on Monroe Avenue, Pittsford, and Birding New England will be available for purchase after the presentation.

Randi and Nic Minetor are the author/ photographer team behind more than 30 books and field guides, including Backyard Birding: A Guide to Attracting and Identifying Birds, The New England Bird Lover’s Garden, and folding Quick Reference guides to the birds, trees, and wildflowers of New York City, New York State, and the Mid-Atlantic states. They also work together on books about America’s national parks, historic cities, and eight books on hiking throughout New York State. Randi is a journalist in the theatre technology and medicine/healthcare industries, while Nic is the resident lighting designer for Eastman Opera Theatre, Finger Lakes Opera, and theater productions at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf. They live in Rochester, New York.
