[cobirds] Sabine's Gull, El Paso County

Birders,

Excuse the late post as I had to get home and make some mother's day breakfast, but in the hour I had outside this morning I enjoyed a gorgeous breeding plumaged adult Sabine's Gull foraging near the parking lots at Big Johnson Reservoir in El Paso County. There are only a handful (4?) of other records for this species in Colorado in May, per eBird. Also present were Franklin's Gulls, Forester's Terns, a good number of Black Terns, and crazy numbers of swallows put down by the low stormy clouds.

Happy Mother's Day and Happy May Birding!
