Just an update about Taylor's excellent find of an adult Franklin's Gull at Crab Meadow beach, Northport, Suffolk County.
Taylor found it around 8 AM this morning. Others arrived around 11 and did not see it, and several of us checked from about 4-7 and it was not seen. Taylor has been checking since the original sighting a few days ago, and this morning was the only subsequent sighting. But hopefully it's in the area -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
