I'm not a Gull expert, but for an unknown reason this Slaty-backed Gull does not seem to be in winter plumage despite it being the end of Feb. Are they already molting?

A huge stir occurred at Long Point, Ontario last Saturday when a Bell's Vireo turned up. The bird is fairly similar in appearance to the Blue-headed Vireo (former Solitary Vireo) but with a less distinctive eye-ring/lore pattern. Not a great photo, but a record of the event nonetheless.

The Henslow's Sparrow that we saw this morning was a lifer. This bird is in a dramatic decline throughout its range, and even some areas where it was regularly seen in Michigan have no birds this year. Urgent attention is needed regarding preservation of natural grassland areas and increased awareness of the habitat requirements of this species.
