Gull ID workshop - Large White-headed Gulls
This is a workshop focusing on the big gulls. The classic large, white-headed gulls of the continent. From the Ring-billed and Heermann's to the Herring and black-backs. Winter is the time for gull diversity so, it is time to prepare for them this fall. Frankly gulls vary from very easy to identify to difficult depending on the age and other considerations. On the whole learning the gulls is a matter of repetition of the information, and also having someone guide you to what is important and what is just "noise." There is a lot of noise in conversations about gull identification, as gull watchers love details and when something does not quite fit in. This creates a situation where gull watchers often focus on what is weird, rather than what is normal! Clearly to learn these birds you need to know what is the norm, and this is one of the aims of this workshop. To cut through the noise and simplify gull identification. Why not include all of the gulls you ask? Well, there are lots of species, so if we want to learn how to separate these gulls, and learn how to understand age, and deal with some of the rarer species that show up nearly anywhere in the continent, it is best to focus on these bigger ones and leave the smaller black-headed gulls for another time.
