Observation details
Near adult gull (white spots on primaries but some black on bill, so presumably fourth cycle), very pale saddle that seems to me to be paler than northern Western gulls, dark primary tips, heavy brownish markings on head extending down to upper breast. Thick bulbous bill. Dark golden eye. Photo to add, always welcome feedback on gulls.
