okaugust Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Tokeland Marina, WA 3/25/2023, at a glance I assumed this gull would be a Western, but the lighter coloring of primaries and the darker colored eyes are giving me pause. I don't think it's light enough to be strictly a Glaucous-winged Gull. We get so many hybrids it's likely that but thought it was worth asking for other opinions. Thank you!

Aidan B Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Definitely a hybrid, primaries are too dark for Glaucous-winged, and too light for Western. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
