At the moment there are two smallish gulls in my yard. They appear to be stunned, shell shocked or exhausted. They are wandering around looking for food, I haven't anything I know would help them out. They have black legs, black bills, are kind of squat and longish and light gray with a bit of gray about the head behind the eyes. Terrible description. I have the book and can sit and the come in fairly close and stay still. I would say laughing gulls maybe? or a kittiwake........I do not know gulls except the residents (or maybe I don't even know them) where the wings meet at the back, tail area there are black tipped feathers with what looks to be a horizontal pattern. They have pointy wings when air borne, holding them up to coast. They have been around since the blow pretty much. More have gone. I've been mowing so maybe I kept them away. One appears to be sleeping on the rise of the lawn next door. I would love to know what they are. Still have hummingbirds feeding and zipping about. They do not like these foreign birds and are dive bombing at them. Also have a gorgeous large golden dragon fly. I don't recall seeing one like it ever. Lovely creature.
