Hello everyone. A quick stop into North East town park today at 12:15 
produced a incredible look at both White-winged Gulls. The Glaucous Gull
 was mixed in with the Greater Black-backed Gulls right at the fishing dock. 
I could have thrown a rock at it. The Iceland Gull was up on the Roof again
 of the Marina across the way. Its a big blue building. When I first glanced at the 
mess of Black Backed Gulls with my bare eyes I thought there was a Peking
 Duck out there, it was pure white. Put the scope on it. Boom, Glaucous Gull.
 I got some pretty nice photos if anyone needs to see. 
Also only a couple Lesser Black-backed Gulls.
Happy Birding
