Link below to photos taken by Jim Tarolli. Photos 6 & 7 show the bird with other gulls (it is the bird facing away).
This will be a good chance for those looking to use the OneidaRBA text-message system if they find the bird (send the text to 41411 and use the keyword OneidaRBA, which is not case-sensitive, as the first word of the message as in Oneidarba Slaty-backed Gull still at Oswego). Please include your name also. If the bird sticks around it should not be difficult to spot. In real life it doesn't look much like LBBG and only suggests that when standing with GBBG (and then only briefly). When with Herrings the almost-black back color and big size suggest GBBG. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jtarolli9/sets/72157632886582820/ Dave Wheeler N Syracuse, NY -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
