The juvenile Sabine's Gull was present at 11:00 AM today October 2 on Cottonwood Lake. The bird was swimming along the rocky shore and among the boat docks in the NE corner of the lake. The bird would occasionally fly along the shore but return to the same spot where I watched it for about a half hour. Across the road on Sham Lake there were an estimated 3-4,00 Franklin's Gulls present. One immature Ibis was still present at noon at Black Rush Marsh on the lake just south of the landfill. There were 2-3,000 gulls present in the area, maybe many more, about half Franklin's, half Ring-billed. In and around Granite Falls and south to Marshall there was a large (100's) migration of American Robins, Yellow-rumped Warblers and Cedar Waxwings going on in the AM hours. Bob Janssen
