I tried in vain for Slaty-backed Gull(s) at the Cedar R. mouth & the
Boeing rooftops this afternoon (Sunday). Neither the original bird
nor the "alternate adult" reported yesterday could be located in the
chill wind. We tried to transmute a couple of Westerns into a
Slaty-back, but, alas, that proved as successful as turning tin into
gold. A rather lame attempt to find the Palm Warbler was also
unsuccessful. The hand-dryers in the bathroom sure felt good on my
frozen hands, though!
