2020 SCHEDULE
2020 has been a roller coaster of a year so far, and we are all learning to live in the current environment of uncertainty. To ensure the health and wellness of workshop participants as well as anticipate issues with travel and transportation, all workshops scheduled through September 1, 2020, have been cancelled. Stay tuned for updates regarding the rest of the year!
Costa Rica ~ December 2020
This small group tour has been scheduled for a long time, with deposits made by all the participants. I have spoken at length with my organizers/coordinators and plan to continue discussions regularly.
This trip has an option for rescheduling in 2021 in the event there are health/wellness concerns as well as any travel restrictions that would prevent the 2020 trip. Contact me directly for information and pricing.
2021 SCHEDULE
Mid-February 2021
Rio Grande Valley Tour of Multiple Ranches: Ruth Hoyt leads this photo tour that takes participants to as many as three professional photo ranches. Choose to photograph at all three or select which ones you want to visit. Migration is in full-swing at this time as birds move from their wintering grounds to their northern summer homes and many spend time on the ranches during his period. Most of the birds are fresh at this time because they have shifted wardrobes to their finest plumage for courting and breeding. The tour focuses on birds, as well as wildlife and other creatures of deep south Texas. Make your reservation today by contacting Ruth Hoyt at (956) 330-2900 or ruth@ruthhoyt.com.
April 24-26
Laguna Seca Ranch Workshop (2 spots open):
Ruth Hoyt conducts this photo workshop at the place she spends most of her field time, the Laguna Seca Ranch. During late winter and early spring migratory birds begin moving from their wintering grounds to their northern summer homes and many spend time on the ranch during his period. Most of the birds are fresh at this time because they have shifted wardrobes to their finest plumage for courting and breeding.
