Media notes
Sabine's Gull at Helena Valley Regulating Res. Helena, MT
Observation details
These birds had been reported earlier by other birders. Saw 5 on the wing at one time but believe that there are more. They were quite far out but could see that it was smaller than the normal gulls in the area and as described by other birders they flew more like a tern. Could see the identifying M pattern on the backs. Poor photos taken. Life first for me!
