Hi Everyone,
What are you thinking about this gull. Photo taken from Trabzon, Turkey , 31.12.2017.

Time for my New Year jaunt down from the mountains to confuse myself looking at the gulls around Geneva. Usual murky conditions and my incompetent use of the camera produced the attached results today. Lots of 2nd years, all obvious michahellis except the white-headed, leggy individual that stands out even in these poor photos! Also, the underwing was very pale as it took off so I'm assuming it's a cachinnans?
yes.
Hi Lou, can u look these gulls too.

Same choice for this (3rd year?) one on the left in each photo. I was leaning towards Caspian until I looked at the flight shot which now makes me think it's a Yellow-legged - as shouldn't Caspian show a small mirror on P10 at this age? HELP!
Why is it in the quiz section?
