Observation details
Adult within Gull colony on roof of Worcester Mental Heath Community Centre (viewed from Telephone Exchange roof). It flew in just as we were about to leave so I didn't get to see if it was feeding a brood. Lots of broods of both parent species on this roof so potentially could be nesting with either. A perfect 'half way' between the two parent species, mantle shade being slightly darker than YLG. Orange eyering, fleshy coloured legs.
