Surprise today: an immature LAUGHING GULL was in with the 300 or so Herring Gulls today at the Coxsackie Boat Launch (thanks to Chad Witko for spotting the bird in the first place);
Also present: two ICELAND Gulls. These were two different ones than the one "bully" Iceland gull which has been present for several weeks. That one was not seen today; And, a first yr. LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL - obviously different than the adult LBBG that had been present for a while, but not seen today. In New Baltimore, a pair of FISH CROWS showed up at their favorite watch point in the yard today. I believe that they had just returned and were vocal enough to proclaim that.
