It would be helpful if you could provide some background on your bona fides and 
the purposes of this study. Thanks!

Dear Birders, 

We are doing a study of GULLS  surface-feeding in large rafts (often in the 
thousands; one thousand, to ten thousand and more), picking food items out of 
waters along the US East Coast this Spring, focusing on February, March, April 
and May. 

 

If you see large numbers of Gulls gathering, swimming around  and 
surface-feeding in large rafts, along the shore or up to several miles  
offshore, during February-through-May,  please email me at robbe...@gmail.com 
  .  

 

All gull species (and Brant) are of interest, including Ring-billed Gulls, 
Herring Gulls,  Bonaparte's Gulls, and rare gulls such as Little Gulls, etc. 

 

At minimum we would like to know which species, how many, when, exactly where,  
and any other behavioral notes you may have on the events. 

 

Our accumulated results will be published online  in June, including at this 
listserv. 

 

Thank you,

Tom Robben
