Bigdaddy44 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 This was taken just south of Anchorage, AK on 07/11/20. Pretty confident in my ID, but being from FL I was definitely out of my comfort zone. Any input would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexHenry Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Yes! Or at least, close enough... On the pacific coast, one always has to consider Glaucous-winged hybrids (with Western or Herring Gulls), but this bird looks pretty pure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdaddy44 Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 I considered that, but my understanding is that the Western doesn't make it into AK and it didn't seem to match anything I could find on the GW / Herring hybrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 P7-10 look a little dark, but overall nothing else seems wrong for pure glaucous-winged to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
