Saw the first winter Glaucous Gull at Patuxent Wildlife Visitor Center this
a.m., first at 10:30 a.m. The flock took off and reshuffled twice, and the
bird was lost. However, Dave (sorry, forgot your last name!) from the
Patuxent chapter of MOS relocated the bird at 11:15. No Iceland candidates
were seen, despite diligent searching. A handful of rusty blackbirds and
common snipe worked the dry bed of Cash Lake (viewable from the blind on
the boardwalk down to Cash Lake, the body of water just left of Lake
Redington if you look from the parking lot).
