Apologies for all the OROR posts... but my OROR2 below, upon further scrutiny of all the photos, does have a couple of black feathers in the throat (I had thought shadow), so maybe this is the one rep

After posting below I see the other reports of one with a black bib in the garden, which none of the ones I saw had. So, maybe "3-5". Peter

Hi all - Spent a late lunch hour hoping that the (or one of the) Lewis's Woodpeckers was still around at Fort Mason. No luck there but every time I turned around there seemed to be an Orchard Oriole.

Hi Al - Appreciate your detailed response. A lot of folks monitor these sites to learn about these complex subjects and it's great to have helpful responses. Yes, "confused" is an operative word by mo

Hi Joe and Al - Appreciate the responses and will concede that it is most likely a CAGU, though I'd question first-cycle with that much dark gray in the back and this tail pattern. As we know, second-

I've done some research and can't find close matches with second-cycle Black-tailed so will re-identify it in eBird as Gull sp. The back still looks dark to me for CAGU and I'd like to find one with a
