Dear All
Just a quick note to post that there was a 1st winter Glaucous Gull in the Tidal Basin gull roost this morning. It departed at 7.10am and I lost sight of it in flight unsure as to which direction it departed. I searched the Anacostia, Washington Channel/Hains Pt and went back to the basin at around 8.30 but couldn't relocate it. For those who might want to look for it then a visit to the roost this afternoon is definitely worth a try or a pre-dawn vigil tomorrow.
I don't have a photo site but will email some terrible pics to the usual laridophiles - do let me know off list if you'd like copies.
Best
Gary Allport
