Join Erie Bird Observatory’s Mary Birdsong as she shares the high and low lights of the 2022 nesting season at Gull Point, Presque Isle State Park. It was another extraordinary year with the first five-month season in the books–lasting from April 15 to September 15.
Discover what new milestones were reached, the continuing intrigue of a philandering male and the ultimate success of plover chicks fledged into the Great Lakes population. Birdsong will also include an update on the continuing attempt by Common Terns to successfully nest at Gull Point, and a few of the season’s most notable migrant shorebirds.
This meeting is by Zoom only. Try to log in about 5 – 10 minutes before 7 pm.
