Copeland Bird Observatory moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to Copeland Bird Observatory. Unfortunately, it is not ready for publishing because it needs more sources to establish notability. It is quite possible that there are enough in-depth independent sources to write an article about this observatory (it's old enough!) but these need to be shown and summarized in the article. Your article is now a draft where you can improve it undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Elmidae (talk · contribs) 17:20, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Little gull
Hi Morton1945, I see you edited Little Gull to include North Carolina as a breeding location. I know a little about birds, even less about North American birds, but that struck me as odd, I see Little Gulls here in eastern Scotland mainly in late Summer and Autumn and they breed in Scandinavia, North Carolina would be very far south for a breeding record. I checked the Birds of North Carolina http://ncbirds.carolinabirdclub.org/view.php?species_id=283 and they do not list Little Gull as a breeding species and it is a lot rarer there than it is in Scotland where it is an occasional breeder. Quetzal1964 (talk) 06:20, 1 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks. The book (Potters) refers to the little gull as "seen several times in north-eastern North Carolina" - not necessarily as a breeding species. I have made a short correction if you prefer to alter it please do! Morton1945 (talk) 14:50, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I was thinking of expanding the article to take a break from destubbing fish articles. Little Gull is one of my favourite species, relatively easy to see and identify but uncommon enough to be noteworthy. Quetzal1964 (talk) 18:39, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * best of luck Morton1945 (talk) 20:11, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
