This guy was spotted at Woodland Park here in Kalispell. It appears to be a gull type, but has a somewhat straighter, pointed beak and thinner legs with webbed feet. I thought it might be a tern, but I couldn’t find one that looks like this guy. We’ve never seen this bird before, so we have no idea what it is. It also had a high pitched, short call that was nothing like a seagull. Any ideas?
