Young Black-headed Gull?

I photographed this youngster at Minsmere yesterday while I was trying out my new teleconverter but as it was on its own with no adults about I don't know what it is. I think it is probably a Black-headed Gull but does anyone else have a better idea?
Edit. Apologies, I have changed the photo to an uncropped version as the other one looked a bit too cramped. Ron

Great shot.
Looks like BH Gull to me but it's no longer Larus, now Chroicocephalus ridibundus.
