With all the talk of strange gulls flying around, I find the continuing
reports of Western Gull from the Tri-cities area interesting because
Western Gulls just don't come inland as a rule. In my mind, Slaty-backed
Gull would almost be more likely than Western Gull. Or is this strictly
a Columbia River phenomena?

Just a thought on a confused Wednesday.
