For the last few days, after Doug Gotchfeld first spotted it, the Mew (European) Gull has been found with a small flock of gulls that gather around the open water in Prospect Park Lake. Today Doug spotted it just before 3:30 and the gull left just before 4:30. Yesterday it was gone by 4. It has been seen as early as 2 a few days ago.
