Observation details
Flagged as rare. Larger than the RBGU also present. Photos. Looks just like the young Iceland in photos taken by other birders and reported in area of trash transfer station on the Howard / Anne Arundel County line. (Could this be the same individual?) Mostly white with speckled brown wings, all-dark bill. Although in flight briefly, it settled on the water again and was still there when I left. In open area near the dam. (Bird seemed interested in cormorant's catch -- photos -- but wasn't aggressive like the RBGU, though it was fending the other gulls off when they came near.)
