SUMMARY:November Meeting via Zoom:  "Introduction to Gull Identification" by Amar Ayyash
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Often approached with apprehension\, gulls have gained a love-hate relationship with many birders. Among these larids are some of the most coveted bird species in the world. Amar will highlight key identification field marks for separating our most common gull species\, and he will also touch on some of the often-ignored topics in gull-study such as the aging process\, plumage and molt. Learn why an increasing number of people are being drawn to this family of birds and are eagerly calling themselves “larophiles”. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\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 is often found speaking at birding events throughout the continent. Much of his free time is dedicated to traveling the world to photograph and study gulls. Ayyash has published a number of papers and articles on gull identification\, distribution\, and molt\, and he is the author of the authoritative guide to North American Gulls\, The Gull Guide. Amar lives in northern Illinois where he teaches mathematics. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe meeting is held online via Zoom. The Zoom link has been sent to members.  \n\n\n\nThe meeting is open to everyone.
