Shep, Tweeters -

I went to recheck for the Black-Tailed Gull From the NE 5000 viewpoint at
about 1:00 pm this afternoon, Wednesday 11/18. Shortly after I arrived, a
gull with a black tail band and white rim and longish black wing tips, took
of from the far end of the log boom. It flew out over Commencement Bay
towards the mouth of the Puyallup River. I did not have my scope set up yet
and since the winds were starting to pick up, i did not bother.
In my opinion, there is a chance that the gull is still around. Any local
birder who has the time, may want to keep checking for a while longer, in
case it is indeed still present. I am sure that there are some birders who
what still like to see it!

Cheers and good birding!
