Hey -- Just wanted to drop an afternoon note off saying while
doing some yardwork today I was watching the skies. Nothing of
migratory status, but one of the gulls flying around happened to be a
2nd yr. GREAT-BLACK BACK. Wings were totally dark at the
primaries, and size was much larger than some nearby Ringbills.
I unfortunately had to walk home last night, but had an interesting turnout
for night sounds. Had a 6 species hike. Chipping sparrows, white-throated,
mallard, geese, robin and the best and last one, a sora.
I failed to mention a sight from Menominee Beach 2 days ago, where I had
about 200 Bonaparte's gull floating on the lake about 300 yds. out.
For now, Paul Bruce
Winnebago Co.
