Black-headed Gull in Jackson County
0000-00-00

'Accidental' in Minnesota

A medium-sized gull, larger than Bonaparte's Gulls perched nearby, and smaller than nearby Ring-Billed Gulls. The Gull was in Adult Basic Plumage. At 10:00 a.m. on 17 October after the last fisherman had left, the gull took flight and flew around the perimeter of the section of the lake north of the road (in Minnesota), then returned south of the road and perched on the fising pier.
