I climbed down the large rocks on the ocean side of the railroad grade, and took this closeup of the Mew Gull nest. I found it strange because the gulls didn't seem to be concerned with my presents. This is a strange place for a Mew Gull nest. There is a loose colony of hundreds of gulls in the fresh water, of Potters Marsh, on the opposite side of the RR & Hwy. In the marsh they nest among the reeds.
