Howdy all,


I did a final(?) effort to refind the Swallow-tailed Gull this morning. No luck -- hence my reluctance to put the species name in the subject line, lest I get someone's hopes up too much.


I looked at Point Wells, Edmonds Marina, and Carkeek Park. Gull numbers overall seem to be down over the past week, particularly at Point Wells. If any of you are still seeing good gull numbers in the south Sound or elsewhere, it might still be worth looking.
