Great find Fred! I looked for the BH Gull yesterday afternoon from about 3:00-4:00, but did not have any luck. There were about 1,700 gulls, including an adult Lesser Black-backed, Greater Black-backeds, about 75 Herring, 230 Ring-billed, and the rest were Laughers. I sorted through them carefully with a scope 3 times and think it was absent but could have missed it. The gulls were easy to view, the light was excellent, and they only got up once. I looked hard when they were up but saw nothing to lock on to. I will keep looking tho!
Cheers-
