Glaucous Gull Corpus Christi
Really enjoyed this beautiful and cooperative gull !! I’ve decided Glaucous and Iceland are my favorites, until I see an Ivory or Ross’s at least!!

B3 give me an ID?
Bummer !!!
Gull #5 (same date location). Species? Age? Gull #5 First cycle Ring-billed with pretty advanced feathers on the back – lot of adult gray coming in. Also note shape is perfect for ring bill.
Virginia and I made a quick trip to corpus yesterday for 3 gulls and a duck. Our score on target birds? 0 for 4!! But none the less a great day!!! Especially seeing these early migrants under perfect lighting conditions, in leafless trees at eye level!! DOWN WITH WOBBLER-NECK !!!! (new bumper sticker?)
There’s a nice discussion of Pacific vs American Golden Plover on the “Advanced Bird ID” FB page. You’ll have to join that group to see the rest of post.
Dipped (for the 5th time) on CAGU in Texas — the search continues. Meanwhile these guys are always nice to see.
