Media notes

Really pale mantle, and seemed rather American Herring Gull-esque. Has a rather thick, Olympic Gull-like bill. Gulls like these give me the impression of the meeting place for Western Gull, Glaucous-winged Gull, and American Herring Gull. Maybe the product of an Olympic Gull-y type GWGU and an AHGU?
