Observation details
gulls, relatively small compared to CAGU, WEGU, & HEEG, with distinctive black, white, and gray pattern on upper parts, in dense flocks offshore but surprisingly close, especially early. Most were adults with black heads and yellow-tipped bill; a few immatures also present. Rough estimate on count which may be an undercount. Photos.
