I birdwatched at Canal Park this morning. Among the HERRING GULLS (no Ring-billed Gulls observed this morning), I observed one juvenile GLAUCOUS GULL, one adult THAYER'S GULL, and that probable ICELAND x THAYER'S GULL HYBRID. It's neat to see the transition of gulls moving through. Although there could be many Ring-billed Gulls still lingering around, this morning was my first morning of this autumn's gull-watching where I didn't observe one Ring-billed Gull. Many COMMON GOLDENEYES are paddling around Canal Park too! Photos are below. Enjoy!
