Hello,
I've got one last bird I saw on my trip to Poland this summer whose identity I'd like confirmed. I saw this gull at a hydroelectric dam on the Bóbr River in southwestern Poland in late June. Based on its yellowish-pink legs, and the shape of its head and bill, I decided it was a Caspian Gull. Is this correct? Unfortunately I couldn't get any better pictures, as it was perched on a lamppost on the other side of the dam, and there was no way to get across.
