Observation details

Continuing Rarity, first reported on 3/1 by Samuel Holman at this location. Observed Lesser Black-backed Gull on sand bar with more than a dozen gulls for over 10 minutes in my spotting scope and then briefly in flight. Adult with dark gray/black mantle, yellow legs, and bill. Larger than nearby Ring-billed Gull. Long slender wings with no discernible white.
