Observation details
In rain pool associating with LAGU and terns. Small Gull, about the size of SATE, with clean dark gray hood contrasting strongly with white underparts. Hood had a black border. Some light pale mottling on face from molt. Mantle and back dark gray. Primaries black with white edges. Bill black with yellow tip. Dark eye. Bird appeared first around 8:03 in rain pool and sat and preened with group of terns and gulls. Despite being flushed multiple times, it stayed at the pool until about 9:30 when it flushed with a group of terns. It did not return after that and I left at 11:45. Photographed.
