Hi Folks, I'm useless with gulls but this one really stood out while birding on the Hayle Estuary last week, because of its strong head pattern, especially the white collar all around the neck. I've looked through all the regular gull and seabird field guides and i cannot find one picture that is like this bird. I'm presuming its just a well-marked LBB Gull but thought I'd post just in case......I have much better HD videos as well if it is worth pursuing. cheers
