For those of you interested, Aiken Audubon in Colorado Springs will be hosting
Bill Schmoker as our speaker this Wednesday, speaking about gulls and their
identification.
When: Wednesday, October 19
Time: 6:30 p.m. - Doors open for socializing, coffee and snacks
7:00 p.m. - Announcements & Program
Where: Colorado Division of Wildlife, 4255 Sinton Road, Colorado Springs
(please use rear entrance, where the classrooms are located)
What: Bill Schmoker - Labeling Larids
Do all gulls look the same to you? Do your brain cells shut down when
confronted with 25 North American species that come in almost 200 different
plumages? Are you horrified by hybrids and terrified by terns? If, like many
birders, you find identifying gulls and other larids more than challenging,
then be sure to come to our October program. Educator extraordinaire Bill
Schmoker will sort it all out. Bill is a dynamic speaker who manages to keep a
classroom of junior high science students enthralled day after day. He’s also a
skilled photographer, as this gull photo attests. Be sure to take a look at
BRDPICS, his nature and birding blog.
Please join us for what is to be sure a fascinating presentation and great
learning opportunity.
