Received notification from Glamorgan Records Committee earlier today that the above has been accepted as a 2nd cal year Glaucous Gull re: "structure especially head and bill". Field observation; "c.Herring Gull size" attributed to the bird being a female.
The above was taken from Birdwatch March 2018 and is of a 2nd cal year female, again taken in March, at Zealand, Denmark. The bird is described as small and neat with a rounded head, centrally placed eyes and a slender bill - not dissimilar to the Rhaslas bird, do you reckon, size isn't everything, whose round is it?
Great news mike and all them gull blogs right too .
