Hi Tweets,

Yesterday I was at Magnuson Park mid-afternoon for
kite-flying with friends (alas NO wind), and decided
to look at the gulls along the shore. There were many
immature RING-BILLED GULLS and at least one first
winter BONAPARTE'S GULL. It thought we were going to
feed it so got really nice close looks.
