Late this evening, I located a juvenile Sabine's Gull in Murray County on Hwy 62, 2.5 miles west of the Cottonwood County line. It slowly made its way east, passing over flooded ag fields and wetlands. John Hockema and I followed the bird for a mile and eventually lost it. At that point we were only a mile or so from Talcot Lake in Cottonwood County. We scoped the lake from the boat landing on the south side where John was able to relocate the Sabine's gull over the water. It eventually landed. It is more than likely roosting there for the night, along with a couple hundred other gulls (mostly Franklin's).
