[cayugabirds-l] Thayer's Gull, Stevenson Rd.

2015-11-24 Thread Jay McGowan
Found on Sunday but absent yesterday, a beautiful 1st cycle THAYER'S GULL
is this morning back on the active pile of the compost at Stevenson Road.
Also present are a 1st cycle GLAUCOUS GULL, possibly up to three ICELAND
GULLS, and at least one 1st cycle LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL. I haven't seen
it yet this morning, but yesterday I had an adult HERRING X GREAT
BLACK-BACKED GULL HYBRID, perhaps the same bird as in past years returning.
