Observation details
one of the first birds I saw when arriving on the island and going to front beach. I wasn't able to get an ID at the time, but people have been seeing the bird for a week now. Bumped into a person with a great photograph three days later confirming it was a kelp gull. Adult in immaculate plumage, bill with a small red dot near the tip of the lower beak. I'm hoping to receive a photograph to lodge here.
