Bonaparte's Gull - nonbreeding

Chroicocephalus philadelphia

Description:

Small white, gray back gull, with black dot behind eye. Group flying around and diving into water. Few of them would stop on the water or rocks. Looks more like a bonaparte's gull, but seemed smaller that bonarpartes I've seen in the past. Maybe a Little Gull?

Habitat:

St. Clair River
