Observation details
1st winter bird spotted in my scope within several minutes among the roosting and preening Laughing Gulls on the mud flats at the waters edge. Smaller gull with a smaller bill, compared to a Laughing Gull. The black half hood immediately stood out and the back of the neck was white not gray. Poor but identifiable photos.Was able to get 3 others birders on the bird before it flew off heading west. Bird was visible for about 20-25 minutes.
