After hearing of 51 Sabine's Gulls along the Indiana lakefront, it hardly seems mentioning one.  A single immature Sabine's  gull was at Lake Erie Bluffs in Lake County today.  I viewed it from the northwest corner of the trail system west of the Lane Road parking lot.  There is a nice area to view the lake there.  It was among a group of approximately 300 Bonaparte's gulls.  Although a ways offshore, it was easy to pick out with binoculars, although a scope would have been nice.  Gulls often congregate in this area and it has been a good spot in the past for jaegers also.
I also had 16 species of warblers along the trails there.  There were a ton of blackpoll warblers.  I estimated at least 150.  Nashville warblers were also numerous with at least 45.  I had a Connecticut in the northeast corner of the trail system.  It was doing a lot of chipping, which was what drew me to it.  There were also 4 mourning warblers.  The only other bird of note was a yellow-billed cuckoo.
