The annual Gull Frolic will be held February 17 at North Point Marina at the Winthrop Harbor Yacht Club. This popular event is a great way to hone your gull identification skills with experts on hand to teach you the subtle differences among these hard-to-identify birds.
Once again, DBC is a sponsor of this event. Managed by the Illinois Ornithological Society (IOS), the event often features specialties such as Iceland, Glaucous, Great Black-backed, and Lesser Black-backed Gulls, plus an assortment of other waterfowl. Tickets are $35 but sell out quickly. For more information and registration information, click https://www.eventbrite.com/e/22nd-ios-gull-frolic-2024-tickets-692685459857
