Strange Gull for analysis
Hi,
I was just scanning the net when I came across some images of a strange looking gull seen at South Shields, Tyneside today. The site reports this as a possible Caspian Gull, though after much careful consideration and discussion with Wrexile1, we came to the conclusion that it was in fact an argentatus race Herring Gull, albeit a fairly varied individual. I was hoping maybe some of you lot could pass judgement on this gull, as it's interesting to say the least.
The pics can be found at: http://www.whitburnbirding.co.uk/images/Caspian Gull.jpg
Have fun with this one!
