Mick Brown
South Georgia …..The Serengeti of the Southern Ocean
Tonight there was an excellent presentation by local man Mick Brown. An excellent naturalist with a wide range of experience.
South Georgia, the gateway to the Southern Ocean, has an abundance of wildlife even though it is relatively small. It was an awesome journey to get to the area, huge seas and cold conditions.
Mick enthralled us with a high standard of photography capturing life in this very hostile environment.
Whales, Seals, Penguins, Albatross and Petrels in huge numbers were observed and photographed with skill and care. Fabulous to see the behaviour of the wildlife with videos as well as photographs.
Mick told us stories of the history of the island, Shackleton’s epic journey in incredible conditions, retold with detail and respect.
A stunning place to visit and Mick made it all very real to his audience.
