Mike Denny indicated he will be chumming at the Walla Walla River delta
Sunday afternoon around 3:30. (Yes, Super Bowl time with local Walla Walla
product Drew Bledsoe ready to lead a second-half Patriots rally). I headed
over to Walla Walla this morning to try to get photos of the Lesser
Black-backed Gull. Very few gulls were at Hussey Rd. when I arrived around
10:00, so I went up to the landfill. I had a brief look at it up there from
a scope distance around 10:40, but no photos. There was also what appeared
to be a 1st year Thayer's Gull, several Herring Gulls, lots of R-B and CA,
and one that may have been a Glaucous-winged. They weren't very
cooperative. But they will be tomorrow at the delta.
