Field Trip – Gull and Gannet Frenzy, Southport Beach, Southport , Frank Mantlik
April 1, 2017 @ 8:30 am - 11:30 am
Cancelled due to bad weather
Today we will search for plankton-feeding flocks of gulls, including the rare Little and Black-headed Gulls. We’ll also hope to see Northern Gannets plunge-feeding offshore. Wear waterproof shoes for walking on the tidal mudflats, and dress warmly. We may also carpool to nearby sites. Meet at Southport Beach, 1505 Pequot Ave., Southport, located at the intersection of Pequot and Sasco Creek Road, along the Westport/Fairfield border. Parking spaces along Pequot Ave., near intersection with Sasco Creek Rd.
