Leader: Paul Pisano The variable plumages of gulls frustrate many observers, yet their behavior often allows careful and studied observation. This foray, designed for beginning and mid-level birders, will study the gulls that most commonly occur in the mid-Atlantic region. Thursday’s lecture will use slides to teach about plumages and other identification aids, while Saturday’s field trip by carpool will take us to Northeast MD where the birds can be studied at length. For Saturday’s field trip, we will meet at Woodend and carpool together to sites in Northeast Maryland. The group will have the opportunity to go out to lunch at a restaurant together. More specific instructions for the field trip will be shared at the lecture.
