Feminist Bird Club NYC Presents: Gullentine's Day

Founded in 2016,Feminist Bird Clubis dedicated to promoting inclusivity in birding while fundraising and providing a safe opportunity for members of the LGBTQIA+ community, BIPOC, and women to connect with the natural world. Since then, the Feminist Bird Club has expanded to chapters across North America and in the Netherlands.Our goal is two-fold: Make birding and the outdoors inclusive and affirming to people who may not have safe access to it, and leverage people’s passion for the environment and social justice to help create lasting social change. More simply put: There is no reason why we can’t celebrate birds and support our most cherished beliefs in equity and justice at the same time. For us, it’s not either/or.

Join Feminist Bird Club NYC for Gullentine's Day!

Sheepshead Bay

Come mend your broken heart with us! Join Ryan and Martha of Feminist Bird Club NYC for GULLENTINE’S DAY We’re headed to Sheepshead Bay to get better at gull ID and to offer our sincere appreciation to these most unappreciated of birds. We’ll cover the basics and learn how to distinguish between gull species no matter what age they are. Regular gull visitors to Sheepshead Bay include Great Black-backed Gull, Herring Gull, and Ring-billed Gull, plus Bufflehead, Common Loon, Red-breasted Merganser, Fish Crow, American Crow, Mallard, Lesser Scaup, and American Black Duck. Rarer offerings include Lesser Black-backed Gull, Iceland Gull, Common Goldeneye, Harlequin Duck, and Surf Scoter. A real rarity—a Glaucous Gull—has been hanging out for those Roll N Roaster corn fritters, but no guarantee that it will still be there by Gullentine’s Day.Date: February 10, 2022Time: 10am to noonLocation: Sheepshead Bay, BrooklynPlease RSVP in advance Accessibility notes: We will be walking on paved sidewalks the whole time. There are a couple of benches scattered throughout the area, but folks who need frequent seated rests might want to bring a light folding stool. Bathrooms are very hard to come by.
