Gull Identification Workshop
Gulls are present in virtually all habitats in southern New Brunswick yet often don’t receive the same level of attention of many other bird groups. Identification of even our most common gulls can be challenging as they take from two to four years to attain their adult plumages. Would you like to learn more about our gulls and improve your identification skills? If so, Nature Moncton is offering a comprehensive workshop led by NB naturalist, Nelson Poirier of Moncton. The workshop will take place at the Tankville School, 1665 Elmwood Dr. in Moncton. For those coming on the TCH take exit 459 going north on Elmwood Dr. on Rte. 115 with the Tankville School 3.4 km from the exit ramp.
This workshop will include:
-
Specie by specie accounts concentrating on the commonly encountered gulls and brief overviews for what to watch for with rarer gulls that may be encountered in the region
-
Background on gull behaviour, life history and ecological roles
-
Information on how to identify gulls in their various immature and adult plumage
Seating is limited: please pre-register with Judi Berry-Steeves at 387-4778 or email Judi at [email protected]">[email protected]. Registration is $6 payable at the door to cover costs.
