The Laughing Gull was still at Port of Newcastle this morning, Thrusday, May 22, at 8:30 a.m. Not finding the gull at the ponds, I drove around to Bond Head (past Marcus Lise's house on the west side of Mill St., sign says Hummingbird Crossing, where there was an E. Wood-Pewee) down to Lake Ontario and looked back over the marina. The Laughing Gull was flying over the marina with numerous Ring-billed Gulls and Caspian Terns.

To reach Bond Head, follow the above directions but at the stop sign after the railway bridge turn left, continuing on Mill St. and follow Mill St. to the lake. There is a boat ramp where you can park and walk back a very short distance to where you can look across the creek to the marina.
