VOLUNTEER PICK MOVIE NIGHT: "WINGED MIGRATION" Thur June 2 @ 7pm
Winged Migration, is a 2001 documentary film directed by JacquesCluzaud, 
Michel Debats and Jacques Perrin, showcasing the immense journeys routinely 
made by birds during their migrations. 

Dubbed by critics as "gloriously beautiful," the film was shot over the 
course of four years on all seven continents. Shot using in-flight cameras, 
most of the footage is aerial, and the viewer appears to be flying alongside 
birds of successive species, especially Canada geese. They traverse every 
kind of weather and landscape, covering vast distances in a flight for 
survival. The filmmakers exposed over 590 miles of film to create an 
89-minute piece. In one case, two months of filming in one location was 
edited down to less than one minute in the final film.
