Hello All,
Here's some photos of a mystery gull I saw at Sullivan's Pond, Dartmouth
this morning. When I first saw the bird it was sitting on the ice, and the
dark mantle made me think "Lesser black-backed Gull." Then it stood up, and
I could see that the legs were pink and not yellow. The nearest thing I can
find in Sibley, is Slaty-backed Gull. The bird is larger than a Ring-billed
Gull, and slightly smaller than a Herring Gull, as can be seen in the
photos. What do the gull experts amongst you think?
