There were at least two Lesser blacked backed Gulls at each of these stops. Eastlake had 5, two adults, three 1st years. All the others were adults. One Greater black backed at Headlands, only 20-30 Bonapartes at each. Cormorants dominated the jetties at Eastlake. There was a nice look at a Common Loon near breeding plumage on a small pond on Tyler road west of 615 about a half mile, near where the Ross's Goose was hanging out last fall. Also to echo Greg B.'s post there were 150 Ruddies on the pond behind Step 2 just off 480 on Frost road exit (ellsworth rd.), along with Horned grebes, L&G scaup, Ringnecks.   Greg Cudworth
