Great Black-backed Gull at CF
Julie McCall tipped me to a Great Black-backed Gull at the Celery Farm this a.m. It was a bit far away but perhaps it will come closer at some point…
Nice bird, especially if you are doing a CF big year.
Last one I put on eBird from here was in February 2013.
Hopefully, it will hang around for the Hour on the Tower folks tomorrow. (Thanks, Julie!)

This is a big bird I guess all Great Black-backed Gull are large. Maybe it lives nearby and will come in closer.
