Abstract

Band recoveries for 104 Herring Gulls from a colony at Rogers City, Michigan were examined. Seasonal dispersal patterns and ranges for 84 juvenile, 15 one-year-old, and 5 two-year-old gulls have been outlined. While few data are available for establishing the range of this population, this discussion may serve to supplement future studies.
