KWGC Meeting January 5, 2023

Please join the Key West Garden Club on Thursday, January 5, at 1:30 PM for our monthly meeting at West Martello, 1100 Atlantic Blvd. This month’s speaker will be Mark Hedden , a photographer, writer, and semi-professional birdwatcher. He has lived in Key West for more than 30 years and he is currently the Executive Director of the Florida Keys Audubon Society. He also writes the Wild Things column, largely about birds, for Key West Weekly. His work has appeared in several local and national journals and publications, including New York Times, BirdWatching, Birding, Birder’s World. Hedden will be talking about his photo project “South of Southernmost” which focused on wildlife and environs of Ballast Key, a once private island that has now been incorporated into the National Wildlife Refuge System. The meeting is free and open to the public. Join us for delicious refreshments afterward in the garden.
