As Mark said, a concerted cooperative effort by numerous birders to observe the Little Gulls this afternoon (after 2 pm) failed. I think the juv. was last seen flying towards the east at about 1:30. I don’t know when the adult was last seen. As no one has posted links to photos of these rare gulls, I am offering my witness (poor quality) shots from 1 December. I’m sure better ones are out there. Birders at other lakes tomorrow should watch for these, as I believe they have left Union Res. If they reappear at Union, they may be moving back and forth to another location, perhaps a nocturnal roost spot.
Here is the link to the photos: http://www.pbase.com/quetzal/ligu12012011 Nick Komar Fort Collins CO -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
