Hi,
this is from the Wedel NABU sanctuary just west of HH (Hansastadt Hamburg) in northern Germany.
The rear gull is proving hard for me to age and ID. I think possibly 2CY Little Gull, but is lacking black tail band , or outer retrices only black. The dark right half of the W is clear to see and the mantle is already as adult. Bill is dark, legs reddish and feet appear dark. Head is blackish and grey.
