Well...on Sunday at about noon, Gene Revelas and I easily located the
Little Gull at American Lake, mixed in with a flock of about 50 bonies...

But...I spent about 3 hours in the fog on Saturday and 2 hours in a driving
rainstorm on Sunday looking unsuccessfully for the Kent'ish Mockingbird
than EVERYBODY is getting with no sweat...

And...I observed the white Goose near the Kent Boeing plant, just across
the turn off 213th to Frager road...The bill shape and 'grinning patch'
seemed to me to make it a Snow Goose, but the bird also seemed very
short-necked and 'cute' enough to suggest a Ross' Goose...Interesting bird.
