My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing Shrimpy the Kelp
Gull for the first time behind the Sea-Breeze restaurant in
Sandgates, MD around 3 pm today (Saturday). Thanks to
everyone for posting the info! The restaurant staff are
very friendly, with lots of pictures of Shrimpy hung up on
the walls, and a log book for visitors to sign.
Other birds seen included Bufflehead, Long-tailed Duck,
Common Goldeneye, Herring/Great Black-backed/Ring-billed
Gull, Great Blue Heron, and a soaring adult Bald Eagle.
