[Sanderlings?]

Unfortunately, I agree.  Didn't want to throw in the towel on sanderling until I heard from someone else.

 

Thanks.

Photos taken 2 days ago.

It's awfully late for any gulls larger than ring-billed except herring at this point, but this seemed small & small billed for herring.  Lesser-black backed, female herring, or something else?

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input.  Seems like it goes one of two ways whenever i think I might have a thayer's.  Either I get a good photo & it turns out to be a herring gull, or I get lousy photos & nobody can say for sure.  Oh well.  Maybe next winter.

I apologize in advance for these awful photos.  I'm curious what you think about this gull. (taken in OKC earlier this week)

Thanks.
