Observation details
1st cycle, medium-sized gull (roughly the size of nearby California gulls) with a dark brown back, white edging on coverts, mostly unmarked undertail coverts, streaked whitish head with dark shading around eye. An almost solid black bill with just a hint of pink at the very base of the bill visible at close range and a small light tip. Allowed very close approach and good views while associated with other gulls. Photos. Comparing with others' photos from Malibu lagoon, this seems to be the same bird originally reported ~5 miles away at the lagoon by Naresh Satyan on 12/18/23
