There was a decent movement of gulls this morning.  They slowed down a bit
around 9:00, but small numbers moved all day.  There were quite a few
herring and great black-backed later in the day.  I didn't have time to
watch or count though.  Of notice was a glaucous and lesser black-backed.
Waterfowl were still down a bit with mergansers making up most of the
flight.
