For you recent Gulls Class graduates!!
Gull #2 from Cedar Point today (for the gulls class of 2024) Pretty straight forward 1st cycle Herring gull. Notice the inner primary “window” with some light shining through. Also compare width of wing at base (where it meets body), all brownish-gray plumage and snout like pulled-taffy. As a larger gull, the wingbeats of this…
Gulls class: given Jeff’s Texas Gulls Rule, can you ID this bird? Lake Balmorhea 11/18/22.
Gull #7 (same date location). Gull #7 Forster’s tern (I know – a mean trick as I called it “Gull #7”). Orangey legs, very pointed wing, black ear/eye patch, but back of head is not black (as in Common Tern at this time of year).
Shingled by G-U-11 !! Port Townsend WA.
An apparent adult Kelp Gull found at Brownsville landfill this morning. Landfill access as below.
