In addition to the Conservancy photos, member artists will display their own interpretations of raptors, song birds, and various other avian species that capture their imagination. These include paintings, photos, prints and birds or habitat in other media.

The exhibition opens April 19, and runs through May 7. A reception, open to the public, will be held April 21, 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. At the reception, Conservancy staff will be on hand to talk about their eagle programming and land protection work and will be available to answer any questions.
