Found by Les Peterson yesterday and identified by Joachim Bertrands, refound today by Eric Tull. Adult bird with dark mantle and wing tips, long pointed wings, pale eye and red/black tipped bill associating with GWGU and SBGU on the sandbar exposed at low tide at the north end of the lagoon at 48.4295739, -123.4595419. Head tucked in most of the time but occasionally chased short distances by GWGU before being flushed with all other gulls by an Eagle. Flew around calling for maybe a minute before departing to the SW. Photos and audio taken.
