WARREN — Kane Nature photographer Rocky Holland will present a photo program, “Birds of the Allegheny Reservoir,” at Eagle Watch on Feb. 3 at the Big Bend Visitor Center (BBVC), Kinzua Dam.
Eagles will be featured, but other species that frequent the Allegheny Reservoir, the Allegheny River and its banks will also be included.
Holland “is an excellent presenter with a folksy, humorous delivery. He’s had much exposure, having participated in many nature shows in Pennsylvania and New York state,” event representatives said.
He has participated in and exhibited photography at many local festivals, such as the Hawk Mountain Nature Art Festival, and Allegheny Outdoor Club (AOC) events, and been published in
Musher Magazine, Pennsylvania Angler and Pennsylvania Magazine. After living in Alaska for several years, where he became interested in wildlife and nature photography, Holland returned to his hometown Kane. In the 1970s, he discovered the wealth of wildlife and scenery which exists “in the beautiful area we do live in” referring to the Allegheny National Forest, Northwestern Pennsylvania and Western New York.
Eagle Watch will be held from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. “Birds of the Allegheny Reservoir” will be shown beginning at 11 a.m. at the BBVC, subject to demand and space limitations. Light refreshments will be provided, courtesy of the AOC.
