I went back out to Hammond hoping to get some video of the
Kumlien's Gull I claim to have seen this morning. It was
not there. In fact, all the Thayer's Gulls seen this morning
were gone. I suspect it's a tide thing and I'll try again
tomorrow.

While there, I did see an interesting gull brought in by the
kind folks throwing taco shells to the Western/Glaucous-winged
throng.

Any guesses? I'm thinking Vega-type Herring, but I'm willing
to be talked out of it.
