Update on Black Guillemot, Manasquan Inlet, 12/9:

Paul Lehman advises that he and others were at the Inlet from dawn to 10:45. The Guillemot was not seen during that time.

He also reports that the Black-tailed Gull of last week has not been seen again, but that " ... there are still intersting gulls down here on the Cape May shoreline the past few days: 1 Franklin's, 3 Black-headed, 2 Little, 5 Lessers, 1 Iceland, 3000 Laughing, c.10 Parasitic Jaegers. Assume< this colder weather will see some of these leave."

Thanks to Paul for this update.
