Greetings - A sizeable group of folks birded East 72nd in Cleveland this morning, starting around 9 a.m. As of 10:30 a.m. there was a no-show on the gannet. Glaucous, Iceland, and Lesser Black-backed Gulls were all seen very well; the 1st winter Iceland and a 1st winter Glaucous hung out in the immediate hotwaters spillway, close to shore. Hawks were a no-show at Burke, except for a single Red-tail and a female American Kestrel. Here's the gull list: Bonaparte's Gull - 60 Ring-billed Gull Herring Gull ICELAND GULL - one 1st winter GLAUCOUS GULL - (3) one adult, 2 first winters - one of which had a broken lower mandible Lesser Black-backed Gull - at least 6 adults, one first-winter Great Black-backed Gull Best of birding - Jen Jen Brumfield [log in to unmask] Akron, Ohio _________________________________________________________________ Share life as it happens with the new Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_sharelife_122007 ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
