Observation details
Horrible pictures as the heat haze was an issue. Got a bit better looks through the scope as the heat haze would stop briefly. Gull had a much darker back than nearby Ring-billed and California Gulls. Forehead was a long slope giving it a flatter head shape. Bill was yellow with a quite dusky/black ring that covered almost half the bill with some black coming up the middle of bill towards the head. The tip of bill appeared to have just a tiny hint of yellow at the tip. Legs were fairly bright yellow. And although you can't tell by the pictures, the iris was a pale yellow/straw color.
