Leader: Jared Clarke
The gulls are back! Experience the spectacle as thousands of gulls pour into Wascana Park at dusk to roost on the ice for the night – it is a cacophony of sound! We will meticulously sift through the roosting birds to see what species are present. If we are lucky we will find a Lesser Black-backed or a Glaucous Gull. This event is a come and go, you can stay the whole time or just come check it out and leave. Bring a spotting scope and tripod if you have one, but you will be able to look through some that are on site. Dress VERY warmly as the sun sets and the wind blows, it gets very cold (think January cold). We are not walking around, this is a stationary event, although we may move over to another location later in the evening if the birds are gathering in a different spot (text or call 306-552-6587 to check where we are). All ages and skill levels welcome.
