In my last e-mail=2C I failed to give specific instructions on finding the =
gull. It is typically seen to the east of the Wharf at Meteghan on the sand=
 when the tide is not high. See Google Maps link here:

You might be able to see it from the wharf=2C but it is best viewed from th=
e shore access points along the Peter Dugas Rd and the Meteghan Shore Rd (s=
ee links below). In the morning=2C the sun is the wrong direction when view=
ing from the wharf=2C so the shore access points are best. Two shore access=
 points:

There are a number of Ring-billed Gulls as well as 2 Black-headed and five =
Bonaparte's Gulls in the same area. Scan through the Ring-billed Gull sized=
 birds until you find one that is noticeably darker. I've only seen the bir=
d once and it was working the beach back and forth at the water line.

Mark Dennis saw it further north up the coast on March 1 when the tide was =
high. See eBird Checklist for location:
