Mike Maier

Photography

About the Artist - Mike Maier is a Central Ohio nature photographer. He especially enjoys capturing the natural artistry of birds. His primary goal is to showcase our resident birds along with the great diversity of species that pass through this area during spring and fall migrations. People are always surprised learn that most of his photos are taken within a 20 mile radius of his Westerville home.

He also photographs when he travels as evidenced by his stunning photos of Wood Ducks and Prothonotary Warblers from the Carolinas and Bald Eagles from Michigan and Minnesota.

In 2007, he formed Avian Expressions by Mike Maier to use his photography as a means of engaging people to appreciate, protect and preserve nature. Mikeís work has been displayed in numerous Ohio venues including birding conferences, art festivals and galleries.

Mike generously donates his time and photographs to help nature-related organizations in their educational, public relations and fund raising efforts. These organizations include Columbus Audubon, Ohio Ornithological Society, Black Swamp Bird Observatory and the Ohio Wildlife Center.
