The St. Mary's County, MD Kelp Gull NOT SEEN at first light this morning, Tuesday, March 2, 1999, when I arrived around 6:15 a.m until I left at 7 a.m. The Kelp Gull had been present daily since first identified on Sunday, February 14 until Sunday February 28, 1999. It had been seen from dawn to dusk every day except Thursday, February 18 when it flew off at 3 p.m. Looks like Kelpfest is over :-( Jane Kostenko jkostenko@somd.lib.md.us California, Maryland Yesterday is history; tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why they call it the PRESENT.
