Interesting Kumlien's Gull at Thorold |
|
This Kumlien's Gull
has fairly blackish wingtips, a pale eye and a size about the same
as Herring Gull. Thorold ON on 11 January 2017. |
|
|
Based on the amount of
dark showing in the folded primaries, I was expecting more black in
the primary tips. |
|
|
Spread wing showing
much less black |

Ryan Griffiths took this photo of the
upperside of the spread wing showing that the black is mostly on the
outer webs. This is another example of the endless variation in
Kumlien's Gulls. |
