Dear Tweeters,

We were down at Chief Joe Dam this afternoon, south shore where the boom extends across the reservoir, and noticed an all white gull with a black mark on its bill.? At that point we?found?the yellow-billed loon,?then discovered a mule deer swimming across from the far shore.? Well then it was time to go find the Mansfield hawk owl (good luck there).??Having too much fun,?we never?looked again at the gull!? Did anyone else look more carefully at it?

Sheepishly,
