We are having a heck of a time identifying him. Best we can guess is that he is a juvenile Little Gull. We thought he might be a plover of some sort at first, but the colors and beak don't match up. The size was about right though!

We had a a Gold-crowned Sparrow in these parts (Md Eastern Shore) last winter and they are supposed to live on the West coast. I don't think it's a sandwich tern. I am starting to think it's some sort of tern rather than a gull though.
