Large Gull Cheshire UK (1 Viewer)

[CyberRob]

Hi

I managed to get some poor images of a large gull yesterday. Using binoculars, I could see that it had a very white head and yellow bill and long yellow legs. The images don't show this too well as the photographs were taken from inside my house through double glazing and the gull was a great distance away.

Any suggestions for ID will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Any ideas anyone?

Are the legs really yellow? looks like an adult Herring.

Some Herring Gull do have yellow legs.

Sorry for the delay responding, I've had problems with my laptop.

Yes the legs were yellow.

The Gull returned briefly this morning so I'll keep a lookout for it and try and get better images.

Thanks everyone.
