Vlp showing loctions of Gull colordes in region of GreenBy, Wisconsin.and Hat Island were all visited during the day, and colonies of Herring Gulls were found breeding on all of these islands except at the largest of the Strawberry Islands (See Plate III, Fig. 1) which supported a colony of Great Blue Herons.
