BIRDERS’ NIGHT

What We Can Learn from Land-based Seabird Observations

Rocky Point Bird Observatory may be synonymous with bird banding in the Victoria area, but there is another very important aspect to their monitoring. Daily observations are recorded at the banding stations, and since 2016, sea watches have been taking place at Beechey Head and other locations on southern Vancouver Island. Daniel Donnecke will present some of the findings from the sea watch observations, and give us some tips on turning those dark specks into identifiable species. Come early to socialize! Presentation begins after VNHS announcements and coffee.

UVic parking is $3.50.
