Bird Photography Class Presented by Partners in Palo Duro Canyon Foundation

Want to get that perfect bird photo in Palo Duro Canyon or across the country?

Join us to learn how to get that perfect photo shot from bird photo expert Vicki Wilmarth.

Wilmarth was a winner in the 2024 Palo Duro Canyon Photo Contest, sponsored by Partners in Palo Duro Canyon Foundation. Wilmarth and her husband have camped in half of the nation’s national parks and many state parks, spotting birds and wildlife for several decades. She started her photography hobby in high school and has focused on bird photography in the last six years since becoming a serious bird watcher.

All proceeds from this program will go to Partners in Palo Duro Canyon Foundation. The foundation supports many important needs within the park, most recently buying gates for all trailheads to keep visitors off the trails and safe when temperature alerts are issued in the summer.
