In addition, there was an adult Iceland Gull quite close the Glaucous Gull. The wingtips appeared entirely white, although it was observed from a considerable distance. Nearly seven thousand diving ducks were off of Hog's Hole, and were not amused by the presence of a young Bald Eagle.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Glaucous Gull, Stewart Park
From north of Treman Marina the immature Glaucous Gull was still visible on the ice east of the white lighthouse until 5:27pm when it flew north along with other gulls. It's on my Luddite List, along with the adult Iceland Gull which I saw fly past East Shore Park this morning. My legs are tired after about 9 miles of walking. Bonus rare sighting: a hockey game on the frozen Flood Control Channel just downstream of the NYS-89 bridge.--Dave NutterOn Jan 25, 2014, at 03:47 PM, Brendan Fogarty birde...@yahoo.com wrote:In addition, there was an adult Iceland Gull quite close the Glaucous Gull.

[cayugabirds-l] Glaucous Gull, Stewart Park
About 3:30pm today (8 March), just as I was starting a class with home-schoolers at Stewart Park, I found a beautiful all-white immature GLAUCOUS GULL in the very shallow lake water near shore where the usual 3 gull species were resting. Shortly afterward all the gulls took flight for unknown reasons, and after they resettled I did not see it again. Not all the kids had even arrived, and only a few got to see it through my scope, but still it was pretty cool to show them an obviously different gull and explain how it was so uncommon here. After my class broke up I met Jeff Gerbracht scanning through the gulls: no Glaucous, but he did find a LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! --
[cayugabirds-l] Glaucous Gull, Stewart Park
At Stewart Park this afternoon about 2:15pm I found a monstrous white immature GLAUCOUS GULL on the ice, the only unusual bird I could pick out among the RING-BILLED, HERRING, and GREAT BLACK-BACKED GULLS. It was alternately resting and bullying the Herring Gulls.I also traipsed around in Fuertes Sanctuary with Ann Mitchell and Gary Kohlenberg and eventually found a GREAT HORNED OWL perched in a nook high in a tree. I'm not sure if the hollowed out space is big enough for nesting, which ought to be happening about now, but we saw no nest.In the morning I was among several people who went to Stewart Park, East Shore, Myers, and Elaina's searching for Chris Jessie's Black-legged Kittiwake without definitive success, so far as I've heard. Thank-you, Tim Lenz, for posting to Cayugabirds-L early. I will work on recreating a text-message rare bird alert system.We did see several BONAPARTE'S GULLS around the south end of Cayuga Lake and several AMERICAN PIPITS at Myers Point and along the lakeshore of Treman Marine Park. Bob McGuire and I also saw the BROKEN-BILLED COMMON LOON at Ladoga.--Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! --
