westhill Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I saw this gull yesterday on the north shore of Long Island, on Long Island Sound. Sorry for the bad photo, I just had my phone and no camera. Thank you in advance for help with ID! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird-Boys Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Looks fine for 1st-cycle RBGU. No age of LAGU has that pale blue mantle combined with the extensive brown coverts that this bird has. Edited April 7 by Bird-Boys 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
