Observation details
Rare inland. First Franklin County record in eBird. Spotted the dark-hooded gull in flight while on the phone so unfortunately missed best shots. Adult plumaged. Dark hood, deep red bill, legs dark. Mantle darker than RBGUs. Slightly smaller than RBGUs. Narrow pale edge on tertial crescent and hardly and white on the tips of the primaries, ruling out the hoped for FRGU at and inland site like this. Even heard vocalizing the classic “laughing” twice overhead but unable to record fast enough. Photos to be added.
