They were hanging out among the Herring Gulls, which were separated from the larger flock of Ring-billed Gulls. Both birds were fairly easy to pick out from the juvenile/1st winter Herring Gulls; the cream-colored primaries showed little contrast with the rest of the body on both birds. When flying, the primary and secondary pattern was also easy to see on each bird.=20 Unfortunately, I did not find the Lesser Black-backed Gull, but there were still birds flying in at 5:45 as I left the area. -Bob Dunlap, Nicolett County _______________________________________________ mou-net mailing list [email protected] http://cbs.umn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mou-net
