[Mich-listers] Little Gull, Sterling SP, Monroe County.

[Karl Overman]

This afternoon I found a Little Gull on the beach at Sterling State  
Park around 1:15 p.m.  It was present for about a half hour until  
flushed by a guy walking on the beach.  This was off the campground  
area, in the vicinity of a volley ball net.   The Little Gull was in  
with 60 or so Bonaparte's Gulls.  There were easily 500 Bonaparte's  
on the entire beach and resting in the water.  The bird appeared to  
be an adult in nonbreeding plumage.

Cheers,
