Paul Hunter took about ten people down to the shore of Lake Michigan to introduce beginning birders to basic gull identification (i.e. Ring-billed vs Herring vs Bonaparte's Gulls).  Fortunately one Caspian Tern also flew by.

Judith Huf and ten other more experienced birders stayed on the top of the bluff and avoided warbler-neck by scanning the ravines from the bridges.

Thanks to Dolores Knopfelmacher and Lake Park Friends for the coffee.
Thanks to Mike Goodman and the Lake Park Bird Feeders Alliance for stocking the feeders in Locust Ravine.
