A bunch of lucky folks are watching the black-tailed gull now, east side
of river, watching from the grounds of the museum.

Subject: [Ohio-birds] Black Tailed Gull observation points

The Back Tailed Gull noted by Ben Coulter in his post provided good
observation this morning to about 30 birders, including Jim Heflich and
Hans
Petruchke , looking down from Point Park near the mouth of the Ashtabula
River
this a.m. for approximately 15 - 20 minutes , until about 9:50 a.m ,
before dispersing likely nearby along with approximately 150 other gulls.
For those who might not have read Craig Holt's last post at 7:51 p.m.
yesterday, it is noticeably dark mantled , appearing (in that light
anyway)
almost Black backed in coloration , looking as he noted like a Lesser
Black Back at rest , though more like a Ring Billed in size . In its short
flights , its tail is very evident .
