Capture of the Glaucous Gull (Larus glaucus) in Boston Harbor, Mass. 
■— On April 23 , 1906 , while gunning in Boston Harbor, off Quincy, Mass., 
with Mr. R. R. Freeman, we shot a Glaucous Gull (Larus glaucus). The- 
specimen was in slightly immature plumage, having faint brown markings 
on the back and wings. It was in company with a flock of about four 
hundred Herring Gulls and especially attracted attention by being the 
only bird which, in response to calling and the waving of a handkerchief, 
approached within gunshot. The identification of the specimen was 
verified by Mr. William Brewster by the examination of one of the wings.
