impressing shot of a calling ad gull! which probably is a steppe gull, larus (heuglini) barabensis with those dark peppered eyes and black in wingtip reaching p4, not possible to exclude a cachinnans from the eastern part of its range. isn't yellow-legged (michahellis) quite a scarce apparition in eilat? keep such gull pics coming!
