Possible Yellow-legged Gull-Conwy RSPB




This was on the estuary from Conwy RSPB for about 5 minutes this morning before flying over the road/railway towards Conwy. Apologies for the poor picture/screen grab my normal camera has broken so I'm borrowing one. My reservations about calling it 100% Yellow-legged Gull are that the head shape didn't look quite right in the field. Plus there has been a hybrid Herring/LBB Gull in the Morfa roost this winter. Maybe some of you might be able to comment, particularly on the primary patterns from the pictures which I'm not too good at. I have an ok quality video of the bird but I am unable to upload it. No open wing shots unfortunately. Any comments are very welcome.
