Hello All,
We are at last home after winding up a five day birding spree. The last two species observed were as Ed Kane so kindly posted the Great Black-backed Gull( spotted by Ed Kane after we almost left after two hours of scoping out the gulls.) and an outstanding adult Slaty-backed Gull that popped up at about 12:30 and was frightened off at about 1300hrs by a departing plane. MerryLynn also observed 4 unknown swallows high over the boeing plant. We were able to get some fair photos of the Slaty-back. Photos will be sent to those that are interested.
Later Mike
