You think Mercer is cold in winter? Try far northern Japan (Hokaido) where the rare Red Crowned Cranes dance and mate, Stellar Sea Eagles feed in ice strewn seas and snow monkeys bask in warm geo thermal springs.

Gary and Ginny Theisen photographed these spectacles and more during a mid-winter trip to Japan in February of this year. They will give a talk about their experiences and share professional quality photographs of their encounters with wildlife and discuss how their images of people, architecture and food provide insights into cultural understanding. Join us for this free program on Tuesday, September 17 at 4:30 p.m. All are welcome!
