Hi all,

Larus michahellis or cachinnans?

I was pretty sure it was michahellis, but the bill seems quite thin, so I'd like to hear your opinions.

Not a Caspian. Am not seeing michahellis jizz or structure either. Looks more like a yellow-legged Herring Gull of the so-called omissus type.
 
Thanks skbirder, you might be right... I forgot about those misleading yellow-legged herring gulls.
Still, other opinions welcome!
