Several thousand gulls at Lorain harbor; most are hunkered down on the ice by
the marina (visible from the marina parking lot or the parking lot of the
wastewater treatment plant). Mostly ring-billed, about 10% herring, about 30
great black-backed. Not much activity at the former "hot waters". Waterfowl
hunters are along the breakwall but a few hundred Bonaparte's were swirling
near the lighthouse. Couldn't pick out anything but the named ones.
Dan Gesualdo arrived as I was leaving and tipped me off to a merlin at Lakeview
Park on the west side of Lorain. It was still perched when I got there but left
after I'd watched it a while.
The Avon Lake power plant bay had ring-billed, herring, great black-backed, and
one lesser black-backed gulls.
