Two gulls from San Francisco (1 Viewer)

I took the pictures this year on september 12th, while being on vacation at the West Coast of the United States. Both were taken at San Francisco's port with two minutes of difference in between.

Pale eye on the 2nd is a bit odd, but I'd say Western Gull Larus occidentalis for both, or hybrid between that and Glaucous-winged L. glaucescens ("Olympic Gull").

Thank you so much Nutcracker. I was thinking in Larus occidentalis too, but I had great doubts with Larus smithsonianus.

Agree with Western Gull for both.
