   Hey everyone ---  Gulls around the Oshkosh area continue to increase, though 
I haven't been able to get concentrated
on any such gathering.  The Wisconsin St bridge area seems to have the most, 
but I haven't been able to make any time to
check them over thoroughly.  Est'd number around here,  300 birds.  At the end 
of Mill St., one of my best known stops,
had no odd gulls, but about 30 Com Goldeneyes and 2 eagles.  This is a "mouth 
of the Fox" stop.  Had a flyover robin here
2 days ago.  Yard sightings?  Hardly a thing, though the song of 
"cheese-burger"  sounded like a mighty fine suggestion.  Thank
you, Mr.Chickadee.  Had a gull flight go past this afternoon, saw one bird 
looking smaller, binocs not handy, thought to be
an obvious ringbill, but who knows....    Some random goldfinches made an 
audible appearance, too.
   I'll try to make it up to Neenah soon again to check things over, congrats 
to my buddy Tom, with Sylvia, finding the BlK.
Holy needle-in-the-haystack, Batman.
