A heavily marked immature Snowy Owl was visible far to the south from the parking lot on the south side of Cargo Rd just west of the first tunnel. A scope was essential as the bird was near the warehouse-like structure with many "garage doors". Seen today at 4:30 PM. 

At Black Dog there was a large collection of gulls at the east end of the east pond (nearest Hwy 77). The Franklin's Gull was still present, along with 4 Glaucous Gulls, a few Ring-billeds and hundreds of Herrings.
