👻 Calling all ghosts, ghouls, and ornithophiles — the best Halloween treat this year isn’t candy, it’s birding at Scripps Oceanography! 🐦
🪶 According to alum and current postdoctoral scholar Tammy Russell, Scripps is a prime spot for birdwatching year-round. As a seagoing marine ecologist studying predator foraging ecology, habitat use, and the impacts of climate change and plastic pollution, Tammy knows her seabirds, and she’s passionate about sharing why they’re so spectacular.
We caught up with her to learn more about the bodacious birding opportunities right here at Scripps! 🌊
