[Birdnet] Sabine's Gull at the Causeway

[Kristin Purdy]

A juvenile SABINE'S GULL was on the north side of the causeway this morning around 9:30 just east of the No Swimming bridge. The bird was about 150 yards out and was standing alone. A terrific clap of thunder scared the daylights out of both me and the gull. The bird took flight heading west revealing its dramatic wing pattern. I looked for that gull for the next 4 hours and never saw it again. Hmmph. 

I heard a report of the PACIFIC GOLDEN-PLOVER at mm 5 around 9 am this morning; I saw the bird one reflective marker west of mm 5 at about 1:15. Both sightings were on the north side along the border between weeds and mudflat.
