Observation details

Second cycle gull- size of a Western or Herring. Too dark winged to be a pure Western and bill a bit small also. Has a few Slaty-backed Gull characteristics so will submit report to OBRC to see what they think. Certainly it could also end up being a hybrid? Olympic Gull? No previous records of Slaty-backed in Coos County although there are about a dozen accepted OR records- all from winter though. Record accepted by OBRC as Slaty-backed Gull, SBAG-2022-15.
