Observation details

I got 6 Merlin Sound recordings of this species here today. I have trimmed, normalized, & attached 2. If the others would be helpful, I can do that. These 2 clearly match what Merlin's AHG's "Long calls" sound files contain. I scanned many dozens of gulls individually within 100-yds in good light through my scope (@ 60x), & failed to find any larger sized gull, with clear yellow eyes & a yellow bill with a red/orange gape. Thanks a bunch to the 2 NOHA's that chased off all the gulls this morning, before I was done with them :). I will continue to work for a visual, but this bird was clearly here this morning, so I've included it in this CL.
