Preponderance of Glaucous-winged Gulls at Herring runs?

I have been hoping to get some feedback about this from some gull devotees. During the herring runs over the last 4 years at Pt. Richmond, I have consistently noted that there is a larger number of

Re: Slaty-backed Gull at Ferry Point

Re: Slaty-backed Gull at Ferry Point

Re: Iceland Gull photos

My advice to everyone who wants to see this bird is USE BREAD. Throw pieces of bread in the water to gather a large flock of gulls, and keep on throwing to keep them coming for a while. If the Iceland

Slaty-backed Gull at Ferry Point

This morning around 11:00 I had an adult Slaty-backed Gull at Ferry Point. It was foraging on the pilings under the old pier and was generally a pain in the ass to see, although it was kind enough to

Update on Pt. Richmond Herring Run

Heather Farm Peregrines

Yesterday there were two adult PEREGRINE FALCONS that circled fairly low over the park. One was clutching prey, probably a white rock pigeon. It occurred to me that the falcons might be the Castle

Re: Iceland Gull photos

Sorry, I don't think I was specific enough about the Iceland Gull's location. This was at the place I call the Gazebo Beach: the sandy beach just south of the east end of Fairyland. There is a large

Lake Merritt yesterday, apparent Kumlien's Iceland Gull

Sorry, haven't had time to post until now. Yesterday I met up with Bob and Juli Toleno at Lake Merritt, where there were very few gulls and no sign of the target Glaucous. This didn't stop a 2nd-cycle
