The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents
  Sharks of New England
with
  Dr. Tom Burns


BREWSTER, MA ­ The Cape Cod Museum of Natural 
History presents Dr. Tom Burns Sunday, September 13, 2015 at 1pm.

Dr. Burns has been photographing sharks for over 
20 years. His pursuit of shark encounters has 
taken him around the world. Years of in-water 
interactions with sharks, often without the 
barrier of a cage, has allowed him to obtain a 
real perspective of these intelligent animals. 
Based on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, it is the 
sharks of New England that have become his focus 
including the Mako shark, Basking shark, 
Porbeagles and the rare Hammerhead and Tiger sharks.

Beyond the species profiles, Dr. Burns will give 
the audience background on how he dives, 
photographs, and interacts with these different 
species.  Some might be surprised to learn that 
he never uses a shark cage and will sometimes use 
aerial spotters for encountering sharks such as 
hammerheads. The presentation will include some 
of Dr. Burns’ stunning photographs.

Free with Museum Admission

  For more information please call the Museum at 508-896-3867 ext. 133.
