[SBB] Interesting Gull at EEC



This morning Roland Kenner and I saw an interesting gull on the first island in Salt Pond A16 at the EEC in Alviso. It appeared to be an adult Herring Gull (similar in size, shape, mantle color, bill shape, primary color and spotting of nearby Herring Gulls). What is interesting is that it had dark orange legs and the bill was a deeper yellow than on the other Herring Gulls. There were several Herring Gulls near this one, so it was pretty easy to see the big difference in the deep orange colored legs compared to the usual pink legs of Herring Gulls. The gull stood in the same spot on the near end of the island for about half an hour around 11:00 this morning.

Take care.
Pat Kenny
