RFI: Sabine's Gull Pronunciation



Carolina Birders:

I don't recall ever hearing anyone pronounce "Sabine's." Is there a consensus 
on pronunciation? It looks like it could be "SAY-beans" (like the town) or 
"SAY-byens." (Or maybe this will have to be added to the 
"PILL-ee-ated/PILE-ee-ated" and "BOCK-mans/BACK-mans" list of controversial 
pronunciations.)
