Some of my gull spots
- Point No Point: Lots of great gulls on the beach here! Bonaparte’s,
Heermann’s, Short-billed, Glaucous-winged, Olympic, California, occasional
Western & Thayer's. This is my top recommendation for species diversity and
close range photos
- Ballard Locks: Lots of GWGUs/Olympics at close range, Heermann's,
Short-billed, California
- Carkeek Park: Olympic/Glaucous-winged, Short-billed and California: a
great place for photos especially during salmon season
- Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge: Tons of Ring-billeds,
Olympic/GWGUs, Short-billed
- Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge had really excellent gulls at close
range when I was out there in October, but I don't get out there often
enough to tell you how consistent it is
