Caspian Tern photo by Mick Thompson
Did you know that Caspian Tern chicks vocalize while they are still in the egg? The Caspian Tern is the largest of all terns and can be found on all continents, except Antarctica. Their bright red bill and black “cap” provides a striking appearance. In the coming months, you might find a pair of Caspian Terns looking fish in the waters of Lake Washington, between the Seward Park and Mt. Baker neighborhoods. If you’re lucky you might hear their raspy “kwok” call.

Ask The Naturalist
The curious mind loves to unravel the mysteries of the natural world. But sometimes binoculars, a magnifying lens, and a field guide just aren't enough to answer those questions. Here is your opportunity to ask our Ed Dominguez questions about native plants, large carnivores, astronomy, geology...anything, especially birds! Each week we'll post one question with an answer online and on Facebook.

Find answers to this week's question and post your own here.
Something For The Kids!
Audubon For Kids is great resource that encourages young people to explore and connect with the natural world.

Temporary Closure
In order to protect the health and well-being of our staff, volunteers and visitors and to help stop the spread of COVID-19, we are closing the Seward Park Audubon Center until April 29. We will continue to monitor the situation with direction from Mayor Durkin’s and Gov. Inslee’s offices.

If you have registered for a program in the coming weeks we will be in contact with you regarding your options for rescheduling or refunds. We are hopeful that we can quickly return to our mission of connecting people with the wonder of nature through programs like Morning Treats & Tweets, Science Nature & A Biscuit and more. Please sign-up for our weekly email newsletter to stay abreast of our events and programs. 

If you are stuck indoors and need a birdy distraction here is a beautiful page filled with Audubon’s favorite bird photos, videos, and stories.

Thank you all for your continued support. We look forward to seeing you vibrant and healthy once this crisis has come to an end.  

Joey Manson, Director
Seward Park Audubon Center
