COBirders,
Early this morning I checked Big Johnson reservoir and had a non-breeding adult (I think it is an adult) LAUGHING GULL in the southeast corner of the reservoir. It was feeding in the mud most of the time and occasionally being chased by AMERICAN AVOCETs. Other notable species were the continuing PACIFIC LOON, three youngster BALD EAGLEs and one adult, and two LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULLs. This is the first time I have seen the two Lesser Black-backed Gulls at the same time.
