The Great Gull Debate! Gene Hunn et al

Join the "experts" for a gull identification workshop focused on the rarer
big usually pink-legged "species": Iceland, Glaucous, Slaty-backed, Lesser
Black-backed, Great Black-backed, and their more common kin: Thayer's,
Herring, Glaucous-winged, and Western and the various hybrids. Gene Hunn
will organize a powerpoint integrating photos on loan from local
photographers of individuals seen in Washington State with scans of photos
from the latest field guides. Everyone is invited to share opinions as to
identities, field identification issues, etc. If you have photos of these
species you would like to share, please forward jpgs to
enhunn323 at comcast.net ASAP. Please include date, location, and
photographer's name.

WOS Programs are free and open to all. They are held the first Monday of
each month at the Center for Urban Horticulture on the University of
Washington campus, 3501 NE 41st St. in Seattle. Doors open at 7:00 PM and
the program begins at 7:30 PM.

Directions: From I-5, take SR 520 East. Take the Montlake Blvd. NE exit and
turn north towards the University of Washington campus. Stay in right lane
and go north on Montlake Blvd. over the bridge and past the stadium. The
road will curve to the right around the Montlake Fill and merge with NE 45th
St. You will quickly approach a five-way intersection. At the
intersection, turn right onto Mary Gates Memorial Drive. The Center for
Urban Horticulture is two long blocks down on the right. There is plenty of
free parking at the facility. We use the main meeting room, the backside of
which faces the road. Bus numbers 25, 65, and 75 all stop at NE 45th and
Mary Gates Memorial Drive.
