Bitzgirl7 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Braeside On. Aug. 1 2022 All 3 were flying together, no other gulls present. We almost always see Ringbills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds are cool Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 The first one looks like it is a ring bill gull, but i am not positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 All are 4 year gulls so not Ring-billed. I'm assuming all are in the G-wing/Western complex, but there's no way to ID any with certainty from these photos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming all are in the G-wing/Western complex I think anything other than Herring for a 4 year gull at this location (just west of Ottawa) and time would be extremely rare. For my own education can someone explain what features pinpoint these as 4 year gulls (I was also leaning to juvenile/immature Ring-billed partly because of bill size).

Hasan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Oops, sorry, misread the location as Oregon, not Ontario. They're Herring Gulls 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
