A first-winter Lesser Black-backed Gull was observed from the power plant causeway at Black Dog Lake from 4:45-5:05 this evening. It appeared to have most of the characteristics of a first-winter bird, other than it's scapulars appeared to be fairly solidly dark, this may have been due to low light levels that late in the afternoon. Also present was the large Iceland Gull - I haven't seen this individual bird here since 24 December. =20 Doug Kieser Minneapolis =20 ------_=_NextPart_001_01C733A2.E078CFB8 Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dus-ascii"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.3790.2817" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><SPAN class=3D957073503-09012007><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>A = first-winter=20 Lesser Black-backed Gull was observed from the power plant causeway at = Black Dog=20 Lake from 4:45-5:05 this evening.
