A second cycle Little Gull Showed up at Violette's Lock about 9:10AM. It showed well till about 10, with 100 or more Bonaparte's Gulls. It headed downriver and I found it 3/4 miles downstream in the Blockhouse rapids. It headed back upriver and was seen at Violette's about 11 by Jim Moore. I last saw it about 11:45, at the Violette's end of the rapids.  We stayed until 2:30, when Bonie numbers were down to about 20. Sometimes they build up again in late afternoon. Photos:
