I'm having second thoughts about this gull. It was extremely small when
swimming with Ring-billed's last night (1/4 - 1/3rd the size; 2/3rds the
length), and it was hard to see to what extent it had a dark cap. Today,
lying on the north beach at Calhoun, it is evident that there is only the

First-cycle bird associating with the Ring-billeds on L Calhoun at 6:20 PM.
Also present were a Lesser Black-backed and at least one adult Thayer's.
Generally the roosting gull flock at Calhoun is best observed late in the day

Went out during my lunch hour on Monday and refound the Little Gull on
Lake Bemidji. First seen from Cameron Park at 25th Ave. north several
hundreds of yards off shore, it flew with a large flock of Bonaparte's
Gulls (50 plus) further out on to the lake. Bird acting very disturbed
as if chased.
This afternoon, Sunday, September 14, 2008, I relocated the Sabine's
Gull out over the central part of Lake Bemidji from the Cameron Park
boat landing north of the Bemidji State campus. I was able to get
better looks than yesterday and another birder, Mary Lou Marchand, was

I just got an email from Gary Tischer at Agassiz NWR that he and Kelly
Kerfeld observed a first winter Little Gull along CR 7 between South Pool

Shelley Steva and I went to Agassiz tonight and the only gull we found at
that location was a second season Bonaparte's Gull as near as we could tell.
There was no sign of a Little Gull.

Today, 12 July, at about 2:45 PM, Bob Russell and I saw a Little Gull at the
Paynesville sewage ponds in Stearns Co. The gull was in second- or
adult-summer plumage.
Regrettably, we didn't see the Little Gull until it, and about 12 accompanying
Franklin's Gulls, flew across one of the

In the group shots with Bonaparte's, it's the bird in the lower right
foreground, except for the bottom flight shot with the Bonaparte's. In
that one, the background bird is (obviously) the Little.
