Followed up on the Pink/Duffy Glaucous and Little Gull sighting this
morning. The Glaucous was 200-300 yards out in the water with very
little Larus company. It was gone before 11:00. There was a probable
group of Bonaparte's Gulls several miles to the NW. Sure hope I got
that all spelled correctly.
