Observation details

Adult bird. Dark mantle, yellow legs, and noticeably slimmer and longer-looking than a Yellow-footed or Western Gull. Smudgy brown streaks to nape and dark plumage around light eyes. Slimmer beak than Yellow-footed. Photographed. This bird was on my radar for Baja California since they are spreading quickly across North America and towards the Pacific coasts.
