When I stopped at the Ferry dock on the way back to Seattle this afternoon
I had 26 Heermanns Gulls around where the ferry was docked. They were
mostly adults, but there were 8 juviniles. It seems pretty typical to have
Heermanns Gulls at Edmonds in September, though perhaps not in that large
of concentration.
