Thanks to Joe Koscielny for these fantastic photos taken during last Tuesday’s Bergen Audubon Mill Creek Marsh walk! Above is the Great Black-backed Gull, our largest Gull at 30” long with a Ring-billed Gull, at 17.5.”

Join the Bergen County Audubon Society this coming Tuesday, Feb. 19 as they lead a walk through Mill Creek Point Park and Schmidts Woods. They’ll be looking for ducks, ratpors and wintering birds. The walk is from 10 a.m. to noon. For more information contact Don Torino at greatauk4@gmail.com or 201-230-4983.
