Mush 7 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Hello, Today there were some strong winds along the central Florida coast, so I did a bit of a seawatch. I'm pretty sure photos A and B are Cory's Shearwaters, they hung close to the water, and had distinct yellow bills. Photo C is juvenile Northern Gannet (or booby?) Photo D I think is just a first winter laughing gull, I just want to be sure. It's wings look unique. Photo E I have no idea. Sorry for the quality, it was very far out. Its wings look too short to be a laughing gull, and too thick to be a tern's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seanbirds 711 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Sorry, I'm hopeless at seabirds. @Connor Cochrane could tell you I bet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tony Leukering 2,531 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 All guesses correct -- nice getting Cory's from shore, and last is an adult Laugher. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
