Up at Unity Park, gull diversity is picking up with increased numbers of Great Black-backed Gulls, especially adults. Yesterday, a lone Kumlien's Iceland Gull was loafing around and this evening an Lesser Black-backed Gull showed up very late in the day. The gulls seem very unsettled at the moment and are frequently flushed by the local Bald Eagles.
