Kevin Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Would someone explain why some of the coolest birds live so far north, on the ocean? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're only so awesome BECAUSE they are hard to get. If Laughing Gulls lived in those conditions and could only be got on pelagics (at least in the lower 48), they would definitely be the holy grail and everybody would be after them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughing Gulls are basically the holy grail here. There are only a few records upstate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a nice find in KS too. But down in TX/FL? They're pretty much trash birds ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
