Observation details

Large gull with two herring gulls for direct comparison. Immature. White head and chest, very pale white-gray mantle with light tan markings, pink bill with black tip, light pink legs. Brown in the wingtips and tail indicate herring gull hybridization instead of the pure white of a pure glaucous gull.
