Dear Tweeters,

Sorry about a late post--on Saturday, I saw a Glaucous
Gull near the corner of Minkler and Hoehn Roads, east
of Sedro-Woolley (Skagit County). This gull was a dead
ringer for the one that had been seen several times
over the last few months on the Samish Flats. On
Saturday, it stayed in one place for several hours, in
a field with a single juvenile Glaucous-winged Gull.
No other gulls of any kind were around. The location
is right across Hoehn Road from where I saw a Rusty
Blackbird a few years ago, where (unfortunately) a
house is under construction. These are good fields for
gulls, crows, and blackbird-starling flocks.

The area in question can be reached by driving east
from Sedro-Woolley on SR 20, then south on Hoehn Road
(just east of a state highway maintenance garage). The
fields and ponds are good this time of year. A very
nice pond is on Burmaster Road, which heads back
westward to Sedro-Woolley from Hoehn Road.




Yours truly,

Gary Bletsch
