Hey all -

Emil Bacik and I spent 2.5 productive hours at E 72nd
St, this morning.  To say it was cold would be an
understatement, but the conditions brought plenty of
larids close to shore.  Most of these birds were seen
at close range, just east of the bridge.  There was a
large feeding flock just off the tip of the breakwall
here:

Bonaparte's Gull  2000  resting in the harbor west of
the bridge; none different detected
THAYER'S GULL  4  three first-cycle birds, all subtly
different shades of gray & brown & one second-cycle
ICELAND GULL  5  all four age classes represented,
including 2 second-cycle birds
GLAUCOUS GULL  2  first-cycle, adult birds

Three LONG-TAILED DUCKS occupied the marina at Gordon
Park, along with a male Northern Pintail.

if you see the word 'at' within the url, replace it
with the 'at' symbol.
