Gulls are certainly challenging but with a few tricks and a little patience we’ll learn to differentiate between the species we regularly see here in winter. We will discuss identification, plumages, and life-histories as we attempt to demystify these beautiful birds. We’ll carpool to several different locations in Pt. Reyes searching for the various gulls that frequent these areas. This walk is for ages 15 and up. We request that no animals (except service animals) attend. Heavy rain may cancel. If questionable weather, call (415) 893-9527 after 7am on the morning of the event to hear a recorded message if cancelled. Shannon Burke will lead. Questions: Contact Shannon at (415) 893-9520 or SBurke@marincounty.org. Meet at the Chicken Ranch Beach pullout. DIRECTIONS: From Hwy 101 in Larkspur, take the Sir Francis Drake exit 20.4 miles to Olema. Turn right onto Hwy 1 and go 2.0 miles. Turn left on Sir Francis Drake and follow 4.7 miles, parking is on the right.
