Artist Talk: “Bird and Nature Images from the Adirondacks and Beyond” with Warren Greene

This program will feature images of birds, and other wildlife and landscape images from the Adirondacks to the shores of New Jersey. Warren Greene will share stories about his close encounters with wildlife, while capturing behaviors of his subjects in photos.

Warren Greene is a native of Gloversville. He retired after 34 years at the Fulton County Probation Department and worked part time with The Family Counseling Center. For the last eight years, he has been a Fulton County Supervisor representing his ward in Gloversville. His lifelong love of nature evolved into his passion for nature photography that began in 1976. As a boy, he was most interested in butterflies and moths, and later in reptiles and amphibians. His attraction to birds only developed after he bought his first camera and tried to reproduce the types of bird images that he saw in books and magazines. Greene has been published many times through the years in books, magazines, and calendars. He was recognized for his work by the Cape May Bird Observatory in New Jersey.
