Always something new dropping into Hornsby this time of year!!! 3 new species for 2023 for me at Hornsby today. Love migration!!! And Killdeer already have a chick!! What do ya’ll think about the 4 Ibis?
Here are a few sub-adult Ring bill and Herring pix to compare to Sarah’s Niagara falls pix. First 4 are Ring-billed, last 5 are Herring.
Gulls class: given Jeff’s Texas Gulls Rule, can you ID this bird? Lake Balmorhea 11/18/22.
Well I’ve been out gulling most days this week. Staying at my sister’s who lives near a favorite gull location on Lake Ray Hubbard. I’ve been looking for, and thought I’d found, variously Iceland gull (Thayers), California Gull, and today a great black backed gull. After review of bad digiscoped-through-the-fog-in-the-chill-breeze pix and videos and consultation…
On Saturday Eric texted me about Franklin’s gulls at Hornsby and I was sorry to miss. But on Sunday driving back from Dallas I hit the mother-lode!!!! I watched for at least 45 minutes and guestimated 3000-4000 gulls went by!! What a blast!!! And you’ll never guess the wonderful nature setting where I witnessed this………………………………….
Looks like a glaucous winged is in Amarillo (from NA gulls fb page).
