Hi folks,

There are 60 or so GULLS at the Coffin Butte Regional Landfill today.
Good luck identifying them if your name isn't Phil Pickering, since they
are way up on the hill and constantly swirling around, rising above and
below the edge, with a bit of fog to add to the challenge. Some
California, Herring, and Glaucous-winged types but hard to tell for sure
what else. I didn't see any that stood out as either extremely dark or
extremely pale, or kittiwake-ish for that matter.

Happy birding,
Joel
