Amerman 1964 Feb 7 Send Johnston The Western Gull was still on the water off the SE corner. The mew accidental was on the beach just south of the weather beacon. Both of us got very good looks at the bird. It, like the Western Gull first seen two weeks ago, appeared to have just arrived. We could approach to within 50 feet and then when it flew it would do so reluctantly, moving only a few yards ahead. It was very small, with proportionally long legs. Legs or bill black. Medium gray above except for white above bill and on sides of head. Clear white below. White tump, 1" black band on edge of tail, wing tips slightly darker than rest of wing? back, thin white trailing edge to wings. We tried to get permission to attempt to shoot the bird after supper. Mr. Kaliste of JTF 5.6 says such permission must await the requested official notification of scope and procedures from
