Description

A Glaucous-winged Gull Larus glaucescens.

Originally described as Thayer's Gull, Larus thayeri. "It was taken on one of the San Juan Islands, not 100% sure which one, but probably Orcas Island. The gull was generous enough to let me catch this excellent shot so that we could properly identify it from a book when we got home."

From WikiProject Birds: Looks like a Glaucous-winged Gull. Thayer's Gull would have a paler bill and darker (black rather than dark grey) primary tips. It would also show a narrower white trailing edge to the wing. MeegsC Talk 17:54, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

That's my opinion also. SP-KP (talk) 21:17, 16 September 2008 (UTC). Ditto MPF (talk) 14:09, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
