The Back Tailed Gull noted by Ben Coulter in his post provided good
observation this morning to about 30 birders, including Jim Heflich and Hans
Petruchke , looking down from Point Park near the mouth of the Ashtabula River
this a.m. for approximately 15 - 20 minutes , until about 9:50 a.m ,
before dispersing likely nearby along with approximately 150 other gulls.
For those who might not have read Craig Holt's last post at 7:51 p.m.
yesterday, it is noticeably dark mantled , appearing (in that light anyway)
almost Black backed in coloration , looking as he noted like a Lesser
Black Back at rest , though more like a Ring Billed in size . In its short
flights , its tail is very evident .
