Many nice sea ducks\, gulls\, and other nice birds will be seen. the midway porta potties will be available.

SUMMARY:Revere Beach Pop-up trip for Gulls (Gullapalooza)
DESCRIPTION:We are adding a trip to Revere Beach where a lot of gulls are present due to winter storms throwing up or exposing clams on the beach for them to eat. Large number of gulls including possibly rare gulls are there. We’ll do our best to sort through the gulls for rare ones and to work on identifying common gulls that haven’t reach adult plumage yet.  \nWe may have to traverse deep snow\, probably places where people have walked but it isn’t fully packed. Also might be messy conditions on the beach below the high tide point. Could be pretty cold. Dress for the expected conditions. \nBring a scope if you can. \nThere are good bathroom facilities at the meeting spot.  \nLow tide is 11:41 am. We want a lower tide to expose the food and give room for everything going on.

SUMMARY:Early Birders @ Arnold Arboretum\, Bussey Hill & Peter’s Hill 
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow birders in their 20s-30s as we visit Arnold Arboretum! Located in the Forest Hills neighborhood of Boston\, Arnold Arboretum is a 281-acre public preserve home to an extensive collection of flora from across the globe. As we navigate through the park’s hills and gardens\, expect to see late fall residents & migrants (keep an eye out for warblers!). We have no set path for this trip and will follow our eyes and ears to find the birdiest spots in the park. \nWhether you’re a newcomer looking to start a new hobby or are a seasoned bird expert\, birders of all experience levels in their 20s and 30s are encouraged to join! Let’s connect through our mutual appreciation for birds and the environment! Hope to see you there! \nDress for the weather conditions! Expect to walk on mostly paved or gravel paths through hills. We will start our walk near South Street Gate and visit Bussey Hill and Peter’s Hill. Bring binoculars if you have them; loaners are available on request (please email the trip leader ahead of time). \nThis trip is specifically dedicated to those in their 20s and 30s. Please do not bring children. \nPlan to meet at the intersection of Hemlock Hill Rd and Valley Rd inside the park (near South Street Gate across the street from Bussey Brook Meadow). Meeting location coordinates: 42.29791\, -71.12277. \nParking: Free parking is available along the Arborway\, Flora Way\, and Walter Street. \nTransit Directions: Arnold Arboretum is accessible via the T’s Orange Line (Forest Hills) and various bus routes. See the MBTA’s bus map for bus routes. Once you arrive at Forest Hills\, make sure you enter the park via South Street or Forest Hill Rd and follow either of these roads until you reach Beech Path. Follow Beech Path until it terminates and you will be at the meeting location. There is currently construction at the Washington Street entrance and so that path is temporarily closed. Please see the park map for more detail: https://arboretum.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Arnold-Arboretum-Map_12.2024-2.pdf \nPlease feel free to contact the trip leader if you have any issues finding the meeting location (or any other concerns)!

SUMMARY:Fall Meeting and Webinar with Amar Ayyash Author of The Gull Guide
DESCRIPTION:Join us on November 7 for our hybrid in-person/webinar fall meeting with speaker Amar Ayyash\, author of The Gull Guide. There will be a social hour starting at 6:30 and the meeting itself will start at 7:00PM. Free parking at Harvard’s 52 Oxford Street Garage starting at 5:30PM.  The garage is entered across from the intersection of Oxford and Everett Streets. \nRegister for the Zoom webinar broadcast of the meeting. \nAmong the world’s “seabirds\,” gulls are the most accessible to humans\, invading our most immediate surroundings. Gulls are sometimes perceived as second class avian creatures. This\, along with the identification challenges they present and their readiness to hybridize\, creates a love-hate relationship for many birders. Yet some gull species are among the most coveted birds on any birder’s list (think Ross’s Gull and Ivory Gull). This makes for an interesting juxtaposition. Do we like some gulls and look past others? \nAmar Ayyash is both an expert on the gulls of North America and an evangelist for “gull recreation.” He coordinates the IOS Annual Gull Frolic on Lake Michigan\, hosts the popular website anythinglarus.com\, and he speaks at birding events throughout the continent. Much of his free time is dedicated to traveling the world to photograph and study gulls. Amar is the author of the authoritative guide to North American Gulls\, The Gull Guide. \nCopies of The Gull Guide will be for sale by the author. \nFollowing up on the evening’s presentation\, the BBC will offer two field trips focused on gull identification: \n\n11/15 at Revere Beach\, 10AM\n12/6 at Winthrop Beach\, 7:30AM\n\n  \n
