As originally reported by Bill Stanley on the Cincinnati Birds web site on Friday and as Donald Morse noted today, a second winter GLAUCOUS GULL has been seen at the lake at East Fork SP in Clermont County, SW Ohio. Bill originally spotted the bird on the north side of the lake. I, along with Bill, Donald, and the rest of the CBC bird walk participants, saw this bird on the south swimming beach this morning. It was first observed loafing on the beach with the resident Ring-billed and Bonaparte's gulls, then obligingly flew over and sat next to a Herring Gull. It was larger than the Herring, with pink legs and a pink bill with a black spot at the tip. It was white-winged, white all over, but with good lighting, faint "speckles" were noted on the body. The black bill tip, instead of red, lack of a mantle, and faint speckling pattern led me to age this gull as I have. I would appreciate any corrections, as gulls aren't my strong suit, and this is my first Glaucous. Other good birds today include more Cedar Waxwings than I have ever seen in one place before (50+), several Purple Finches, my FOS American Tree Sparrows, a M:F pair of Belted Kingfishers, a Common Loon, and several Horned Grebes. ~Kathi Hutton SW Ohio ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
