Franklin's Gull first cycle with Ring-billed Gull adult
Even though the petite bill (noted during observation) was hidden most of the time on this sleepy bird, note the well-defined blackish half-hood with noticeable white eye arcs, dark mantle (compared to Ring-billed) with contrasting brownish coverts (indicating age), and clean white underparts.
