Subj: roosting gulls
Large numbers of gulls regularly roost at Hunting Creek Bay at night, I have
posted some counts on VA Birds since that area is in VIRGINIA. At this time,
over 1000 RBB Gulls can be found, probably close to 500 L Gulls and
significant numbers of H and GBB Gulls. I may do a quick count in the next
week at sunset.
I believe there is a roost near Hains Pt as Bob Abrams and Todd Day ended the
DC CBC at that location to get the gull count last year. Occasionally, a few
other gulls are noted, i.e., Lesser Black-backed and Black-headed.
All 4 of the typical gulls can be found in those roosts.
