Деталі спостереження

Changing from Larus sp to Thayer’s after discussion with others and post to NA Gulls. 1st cy that came right down the beach and joined the mingling gull flock for a little while. Many close photos taken. Head and bill size/pattern gave us pause, but determined to likely be some superficial reason like greased/wet feathers or mites making the bill appear long. Otherwise structurally the bird fit great for Thayer’s.
