The Swallow-tailed Gull at Carkeek Park in Seattle was present through dusk
at least. At 8:07 PM when it was getting dark, it and the rest of the
resting California Gull flock flew just offshore where it re-grouped on the
water, Swallow-tailed Gull included.

I'm sure others have better pictures but one is here in the meantime:

Hopefully it will remain tomorrow and through the weekend so even more
people can see it. I should be able to check in the morning and will post
an update if no one else has.

Good birding,
