Observation details
First state record, found first yesterday (1/15) by Kent Miller at the landfill and then unknowingly relocated in the evening by Matt Kappler at Summit Lake as it came in to roost. Roughly Herring Gull-sized with a dark slate gray back, obvious large white tertial crescent, dark smudge around the eye, and a dark smudgy gonydeal spot on the lower mandible consistent with Kent’s photos from the original find at the landfill. When the bird flapped/raised its wings, there was limited black on the underside of the primaries, and the “string of pearls” along the primaries were noted. I obtained some poor but identifiable photos and video, and will post as soon as I can.
