Also, since I've been studying gulls since oh, last week, I will venture to verify your Herring Gull. When I enlarged the photo the light iris was clearly visible as were the pink legs and streaking on the neck. That first photo looks pretty much identical to the drawing in Sibley's. Yep, I'd have to agree with you that it's a Herring Gull.Jen Sanfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08932953314258705622noreply@blogger.com
