[nysbirds-l] On the Hudson
Today my son, Curt, and I took a run across the bridge to the Beacon side of the Hudson in the area near the railroad station at about 3:45pm and we were most pleased to find threeICELAND GULLS - - - 2 were birds of the year and one was a second year bird of that extremely clean, almost white, form. As Curt rightly pointed out it is not every day that you get to find THREE Icelands together!
