Grab your binoculars, some warm winter clothes, and maybe a friend, and join us along the Brooklyn waterfront to check out gulls! gulls! gulls! on Gullentine’s Day!
Seasoned FBC guide and dedicated gull enthusiast Ryan Mandelbaum will be helping us find and identify members of this most underappreciated bird family. Come learn how to ID winter-plumaged Herring, Ring-billed, and Great Black-backed Gulls! If we’re lucky, we might get a rare Iceland Gull or Black-headed Gull. And while gulls will be our focus, New York waterways also have lots of weird winter ducks, visiting Great Cormorants, and maybe even a seal or two!
Tickets are Free or by donation.
If you select the donation option, that counts as a ticket, so no need to also add a free ticket unless you need more than one!
We’ll have a couple of scopes to share. Please email us at feministbirdclub.nyc@gmail.com if you need to borrow binoculars.
Date: February 11, 2022

Accessibility: We will be walking on flat paved surfaces at a slow pace. Depending on where we go, there may be some benches to rest.
