Observation details

there were plenty of mature GBB gulls. I am trying to more accuratley look at immatures. This appeared bigger than adjacent Herring but I could not see the tiny pink bill tip for the GBB.I would expect morre pink at the base of an immature Herrinf and more streaking on the chest. Pink legs don't help. Bottom line: 1st or 2nd cycle GBB
