No Kelp Gull was present during the time I was at the
Sea Breeze Restaurant Sunday, March 14, 1999, between
6:45 and 7:10 a.m. More gulls were present today than
most recent days, and the water was totally calm, but no
amount of chumming could raise a Kelp Gull.
The last sighting by birders was Wednesday, 3/10, around
5 p.m., sleeping on the pier. The restaurant manager believes
he saw the Kelp Gull fly off with other gulls at 11 a.m. on 3/11.
The folks at the Sea Breeze Restaurant have offered
to give updates. You may call them at 301-373-5217.

Yesterday is history; tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift. That's why they call it the PRESENT.
