I went over to the Manitowoc impoundment early this morning, before another
round of storms and heavy rain. It was quite foggy by the lake, but 175+
Bonaparte's Gulls were lined up on the railings going out and along the
impoundment. Among them was an adult LlTTLE GULL and shortly thereafter it was
joined by 2 nonadult birds flying over my head and calling. Further out on the
impoundment while checking the flying and perched Bonie's I thought I saw a
nonadult BLACK-HEADED GULL. While I was trying to confirm id they all took
flight and I could not relocate it in the fog. At the far end of the imp. a
Whimbrel was among the boulders in the fog. In addition three species of terns
were present plus the standard gulls. This is the best activity I have seen at
the impoundment in a long time---most enjoyable.
