Observation details
Large 1st winter 'white-headed gull' (Herring/Lesser Black-backed Gull-complex). Flew past Stokes Hill Wharf at 15:53. Previously photographed by another observer around wharf before 15:00. Much discussion on ID, but not conclusive in this plumage. What was presumably the same bird returned at the end of the year (i.e. the next wet season) and was identifiable as taimyrensis subspecies of Lesser Black-backed Gull.
