Volume 2: "Birds and Books"

Summer 2024


Earlier this summer I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the “Birds and Books” workshop offered by Eco Artist, Carolyn Monastra through the Center for Photographic Art.

The day started with a guided walk by Monterey Audubon naturalist Amanda Preece.

Thanks to her we were able to identify 38 species of birds at the Carmel River Lagoon.

Hundreds of pelicans were enjoying a spa day in the brackish water.

Back at the CPA gallery, Carolyn gave a presentation of her work followed by a primer on how to make accordion books.

This was my first attempt at a hand-made book. Of course it was bird-themed! Super fun day!
