Media notes
Large gull, all white including wingtips, pink bill with black tip, pink legs. Iris appeared dark yellow. Presumed 2nd winter bird.
Observation details
Bird flew almost as soon as I found it, so hurried camera setting was Auto, which yielded overexposed and poorly focused shots. I didn't mess with exposure and contrast after photographing the bird because I wasn't sure if I might exaggerate those characteristics. Uncropped. I looked for the bird downriver as far as the parking lot under the bridge, but could not relocate it.
