Algarve Skua (1 Viewer)

Taken at Pontal da Carrapateira this morning. Really poor photos - taken at distance (and had camera settings wrong!), but I think this is probably a Great Skua. It has the white wing patches. But I'm not sure, and don't know if I can exclude other Skua options.

Any advice from Skua experts would be most welcome.
