Hello!
Need help to identify the gull in the lower left corner. Vegae?
I think the others that look quite different are 2cy, 3cy Slaty-backed Gulls.
Thanks!

lower left bird indeed looks more like a vegae than a slaty-back. still, these are 1st summer birds (apart from the two 2nd summer slaties), and i'm not entirely sure such a scap pattern (as in the lower left bird) can totally be excluded for a 2cy schistisagus. but pattern and structure better for vegae.
