Observation details
Seen with flock of terns and flocks in perfect late day light. Petite gull with tiny black bill, mostly brown face with some white around the eyes. Were also fortunate to see it in flight with it's interesting patterned wing upperparts as it flushed with about a dozen terns. We lost it in the rush and it wasn't until about 30 minutes later that John Sterling relocated it by scope view far away to the northwest.
