Observation details

This intermediate color juvenile was with a large flock of mixed gulls. It was a beautiful bird that still had a pink colored mouth when it yawned. Marks include a round head, paler upper belly and beak. We originally though this was a young Parasitic Jaeger. Thank you Bill Tweit.
