One of our local birders had a close fly-by at the public pier this morning of what he thinks is a Black-tailed Gull. It's not surprising, given the October 17th gull at Port Townsend's Point Hudson. It may still be among Edmonds gulls or have continued on south. Birders in Edmonds and points south, particularly those of you with cameras, please keep your eye out for this gull. Thanks.
