MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi Everybody, I will let Peter tell you about our Eastern Neck trip today, suffice it = to say it was a nice day to be out, if a bit breezy for birds. As my = family and I went home from the trip Nancy noticed 80 Bonaparte's Gulls = in a wet field just east of Edesville north of Route 20 (before Shipyard = Lane) and pulled over. After much scanning of the flock we picked out a = single adult Little Gull with the Bonies. Handsome bird with charcoal = underwings and a nice clean white border. This is the first time we've = ever seen a LIGU in an essentially terrestrial setting. Probably a = temporary visitor put down by a shower, but worth reporting on the = chance it sticks around.
