Wow! My first birding excursion to a landfill today and I was completely overwhelmed with the sheer number of birds--both individuals and species. I will have to mentally prepare myself next time I go...and I will definitely take the truck rather than my Fusion. 😄 Also, the booth attendant was welcoming and knowledgeable about what birds had been seen recently. Next stop--the sewage lagoons.

17 Jan 2021 Baldwin co. AL; bayside public pier I thought ROTE at first glance, but he has orange legs and a bit of a dark tip, so then I though Common Tern (which would be a Lifer), but wasn't sure if COTE would have that much of a clean forehead & crown.
