Media notes
Could not get the upper wing shot an thought to be steppe gull ... later on 22/12/19 we revisited the place and we took many pictures of the bird (presumably the same bird) and identified as mongolicus.
Observation details
Could get just two flying shots and Lou Bertalan, Koen Verbanck of western palearctic Gulls forum remarked that it had a Mongolian feel .... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10219258257141084&set=pcb.1803369843128937&type=3&theater&ifg=1 .... Later on a followup trip on 22/12/19 (S62581910) we got the mongolian Gull and was identified conclusively. Discussed in Ask id as well as in Western Palearctic gull forum - https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10219442281421576&set=pcb.1827492507383337&type=3&theater&ifg=1
