Observation details
Found by John Sterling, photographed. This bird was thought to be a hybrid by some, but I still believe it to be a pure or relatively pure bird, as winter Western Gulls can show far more head streaking than is thought, based on birds I have seen on breeding areas. This bird had solidly black wingtips and a dark back, along with the classic head shape.
