Observation details
Returning adult, here for at least the third winter. Roosting with other gulls on same barn roof where it spent a lot of time over the last two winters, the westernmost barn at the dairy. Smaller than GWGU-types with it, much darker mantle, black primary tips with fairly large white spots, bright yellow legs, pale eye, large red feeding spot on lower mandible. Lightly streaked on face and nape. Even though the bird isn’t marked or banded, its appearance, habits, and location certainly suggest it’s the same bird. Distant photos tba.
