Observation details
2nd-cycle Western Gull first found by J. West in early Sept., 2010 at Rotary Park in Lake Havasu City, Mohave. Photo 9/21/10 by DS. Bird still has a few darker 1st-cycle feathers on underparts and superficially resembles a 1st-cycle Yellow-footed Gull (new primaries on this bird eliminate that possibility). Bird has dark brown eye, very bulbous bill, and is just now starting to develop a fleshy base to the lower mandible. Primaries, secondaries, and tail uniformly dark, eliminating hybrid GWGU X WEGU possibility.
