Observasjonsdetaljer
Perhaps a continuing bird found previously by Kelly Kirkpatrick or a different bird. Bird larger than Bonaparte's Gull and smaller than Short-billed Gull. Black head with extremely bold white eye arcs. Wings not too long beyond tail, shorter than wings on Laughing Gull, Wing tips black with obvious white apical spotting. Bill thicker than on Bonaparte's and shorter than for Laughing Gull. Bill and legs were not obvious red but near blackish with subtle hints of red color. Photos taken but bird was not close, on distant sand bar island with tide advancing. Warm so heat distortion affected photos as well.
