[cobirds] Horseshoe reservoir gulls (Larimer)

On Sunday morning, several birders searched horseshoe reservoir for the Little Gull that made a brief appearance there on Saturday late afternoon. The reservoir is drawn down and continues to attract hundreds of gulls and other birds. We could not find the Little Gull. Highlights included:
Sabine's Gull - 1 continuing subadult (photo at https://flic.kr/p/ySCKsH)
Franklin's Gull - 1125
Lesser Black-backed Gull - 2 adult 
Forster's Tern - 1
Killdeer - 100
Least Sandpiper - 15
Greater Yellowlegs - 1
Great Egret - 15

Most of the action was in the northeast corner.
