Return to Jumbo Reservoir

February 24, 2009

Bryan Ehlmann:

Sue Ehlmann, Rebecca Kosten, Richard Stevens and I returned to Jumbo Reservoir in Logan/Sedgwick Counties.

We again took photos of the many gulls. I suppose we have 900-1000+ photos and its going to take a few days to go through them. We took close ups and group shots and tried to capture all the gulls out there.

We again missed seeing a Dunlin and didn't find the Iceland Gull reported yesterday.

The gulls identified today included 2 Glaucous Gulls, an adult Great Black-backed Gull, 2 Lesser Black-backed Gulls, an adult Laughing Gull, a 1st cycle Thayer's Gull, Herring Gulls, and Ring-billed Gulls.

We missed the 1st year Laughing Gull and adult Thayer's Gull we reported previously.

The Winter Wren at Boyd Ponds and the Red-bellied Woodpeckers at Brush Wildlife Area were relocated.
