Ross's Gull near Seattle


 

Adult Ross¡¯s Gull on platform N side Marsh.Island. West of Foster I. Reach from old parking lot of MOHAI.?


 

Somebody on Twitter said the Seattle Ross¡¯s Gull was killed and eaten by a Bald Eagle. Yikes! Does anybody know if this is true?

It was posted on tweeters by someone who watched it happen. So I would say yes, it's true.

Here's a link to a photo collage of the eagle catching the poor gull?

Paul¡­ thanks for the link to that spectacular photo sequence. Wow! What a shame! It reminds me of the Yellow-throated Warbler on Gabrolia Island that got nailed by a Cooper¡¯s Hawk. I wish these raptors would settle for more conventional fare and leave the exotic stuff alone! :D
