Re:[nysbirds-l] Glaucous Gull Brooklyn
I've had a few inquiries so to Clarify there were two Glaucous Gulls at Coney Island Creek Park Today. Bobbi Manian and I Initially saw an all white gull flying over the far west end of seagate from the 37th street jetti that briefly landed on the water but was too far for a positive id. in an effort to get a closer look we went to coney island creek park and walked west on the beach where we found an immature glgu sitting on the water behind the sea gate homes there. this is when i reported bird. it was then joined by a second glgu in similar plumage that flew in from the south west (maybe this was the first bird we saw?). the two birds were together for ten or fifteen minutes before one flew off and out of sight over kaiser park. when we left the remaining gull was still on the water near seagate and was later refound in the area. this was more than i felt i could write from the field at the time and was satisfied that other birders were alerted to the birds presence and managed to get on it.

RE:[nysbirds-l] Glaucous Gull Brooklyn
It took a while, but I eventually relocated one if the Glaucous Gull by the sand spit at the mouth of Coney Island Creek at 3:30pm. It was in the company of a couple of thousand ring-billed, herring and Great Black-backed Gulls.
