See the Iceland Gull? Collins Pond Caribou |
Juvenile Black-legged Kittiwake in flight, upper right |
I DID see the previously reported Kittiwake was still present and flying about the lake. I also saw a couple Northern Pintails and a surprisingly big flock of Canada Geese.
Collins Pond had over 500 gulls this AM including two Icelands. A banded Great Black-backed Gull was preening on the ice. The alpha code on the black color band on its left leg appeared to be "BW" or "8W" I photographed it and sent the images to some gull researchers and will post if I hear anything about the origin of this bird. Appledore?
