Topic: Snowy Owls: The Ghosts of the Dunes
Meet the Snowy Owl through the eyes and lens of Jay Koolpix and his stunning photographs, engaging video clips, and fascinating facts. Captured entirely on Long Island, this presentation showcases the Snowy Owl's many expressions, behaviors, remarkable adaptations, and breathtaking flights. A ghost-white hunter of the Arctic tundra, the Snowy Owl is an unforgettable sight against Long Island's winter beaches, dunes, and ocean. Watch and discover what makes every encounter with this magnificent winter visitor so memorable.
A frequent presenter at SSAS and other local venues, photographer and philanthropist Jay Koolpix has dazzled and inspired us with his photography. He has contributed photos to National Geographic and the Environmental Education & Resiliency Center at Hempstead Lake State Park.
