    Subadult Gull, Santa Cruz, California USA

    The photo was taken today with my phone, so I apologize for the poor (almost useless?) quality. This gull was on the beach with a few Ring-billed Gulls. It was about the same size as the Ring-bills with a relatively thin bill, outer 1/4 blackish with the rest bluish gray. Legs were very light...

    Weird sparrow - S.F. Bay Area (no photo)

    A couple years ago in August, I saw a weird sparrow in a salt marsh near San Francisco and I keep wondering what it might have been. Unforunately, I didn't have a camera handy. It was on a levee initially and then disappeared into the pickleweed: - shape was basic sparrow with rounded head...
