Lesser black-backed gull (L. fuscus). 31-7-11. Various ages
This time of the year, identification of juvenile Lesser black -backed and Yellow legged is complicated and maybe I'm wrong with this juvenile bird. In this case, the head is very small and slender

Near adult or adult Lesser black-backed gull (L. fuscus), 09-01-11
Near adult or adult Lesser black-backed gull (L. fuscus), 09-01-11. This individual has dark eyes. Maybe this is a rest of immaturity, as the bill has also some dark tracks and the legs are pink. It is not obvious if the wing coverts also show immaturity, but there is a lot of white in primarues. Maybe this is just an odd bird.

1 w. Lesser black-backed gull (L. fuscus), 14-02-10



1 w. Lesser black-backed gull (L. fuscus), 14-02-10. Note the very patterned Greater and Median Coverts which ressembles Herring Gull. However some of the second generation scapulars are dark and in the field the general structure was more obvious than in the pics. In flight the identification is obvious because of the lack of primary window
