A Black-headed Gull was sighted from Point No Point,on 8 -17 March 1998 what was the thirteen record.So this Gull now makes it the 14th record in Washington.All birds was sighted in Puget Sound .We photographed the Adult Black -headed Gull from the Everett Sewage Ponds on 2 October 1997.At the same time we also had a Adult Franklin Gull.
