General Program Meeting: Arctic Visitors with Ed Dominguez
Meeting recorded on November 13, 2025
Every autumn our waters host colorful waterfowl that leave their breeding grounds in the far north to overwinter with us in the Puget Sound lowlands. Join Seward Park Audubon Lead Naturalist Ed Dominguez to explore the amazing colors and varieties of ducks, grebes, and coots we call Arctic Visitors.
Ed Dominguez has served as the Lead Naturalist at the Seward Park Audubon Center since 2011. A Native of Mount Shasta, California, Ed obtained his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from California State University. He then moved to Seattle to work on his PhD at University of Washington. Knowledgeable in geology, trees, mushrooms, wildflowers, and mammals, Ed particularly enjoys birds and birdsongs. He is passionate about sharing the wonders of nature with others and is an experienced teacher to all ages.
The next general membership meeting is January 8, 2026 via Zoom, featuring Dinosaurs Amongst Us with Kim Adelson.
