All,
I believe the Sabine's Gull was seen on sept 6th about two days previous to
the reports of a Sabine's Gull at Tridelphia Reservoir. The location of the
Water plant is in the Shenandoah Valley Virginia just south of Harrisonburg
I 81 exit 240 (Bridgewater/Mount Crawford. The bird was seen on Thursday
only.
