California Gull, 1st alternate plumage

The limited amount of white in the primary tips and dark base to p10 indicate this California Gull is molting into its first adult alternate plumage. The rest of the bird, from bill color, to lack of brown feathers in the mantle and tail resemble an adult of any age.
