  4. What kind of gull is this?

    What kind of gull is this?

    Spotted this in Dunmore East on the south coast if Ireland. Certainly doesn't look like an immature Herring/GBBG to me. Is it maybe an Iceland or Glaucous gull? Both of these species have been known to winter in Ireland. Any help ID'ing this would be great. Thanks a lot, C
