After seeing the rare bird alert we ran (drove) up to Farmington Bay WMA
late this afternoon, and found the Western Gull in the canal as
described. We had to wait an hour for it to join the many Herring and
other gulls feeding on the carp, but when it did show up it was
immediately noticeable since it was the only large dark-backed gull
there. This was a much nicer look than at Lee Kay Ponds, as the Western
Gull was amongst 30 or so other gulls, rather than the hundreds at Lee
Kay, and we had the sun behind us!
