Observation details
First-year bird. I went back and forth on whether the bird might be more of a hybrid (i.e., with Herring Gull); the strength of the pattern on the wing coverts and the relatively elongated head are two factors that made me wonder about that. I ended up deciding the bird was closer to a “pure” Glaucous-winged, but would welcome input from those with more experience.
