Observation details
Dark mantled Herring Gull type. Had very pale yellow legs. Overall appeared to be a good candidate for a Yellow-legged Gull except for the fact that it was quite clearly smaller than the Herrings. The mantle was also quite dark even by YLG standards. On the balance of probability maybe more likely to be a hybrid, perhaps Lesser Black-backed x Herring.
