Observation details
Really amazing find from Matt J earlier. Adult in beautiful plumage. Hundreds of photos as it fed and rested close. Landed on beach, but more frequently on fig 8 beach across water, but still visible. Some beach goers had popcorn and that brought the entire flock to their feet! Large dark gull w white head and red bill. almost constantly being harasses/chased by laughing gulls, but it never seemed bothered.
