Observation details
Continuing bird. This gull flew out of the water treatment plant at dusk and gave me a nice flyover. He then landed in the lagoon area separating the vegetation and the beach. I was able to get close to the bird but the low light made for some grainy images. This bird overall was somewhat similar to a Bonaparte's gull but differed in a few key factors. It was a fair bit larger than the Bonaparte's when seen next to it. It also had dark red legs and a blackish/red bill. This bird also had a much more hooded appearance than the Bonaparte's. Photos
