Connor Cochrane Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I think it's a Silver Gull. Note the red bill and pale iris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdbrain22 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I believe it used to be Red-billed Gull on New Zealand, but at some point Red-billed was lumped in with and is now considered a subspecies of the Silver Gull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
