I found an adult Little Gull this afternoon at Bender Park in Oak Creek.
Steve Lubahn and I were scanning endless Bonaparte's Gulls from the boat
launch jetty when the Little Gull flew right in front of us.  The near-black
underwing primaries were seen well, as were the relatively short wing and
rounded wingtip.  Steve also got on the gull, and felt that the bird had not
quite completed its molt into breeding plumage.

County bird for me!
