Heuglin's Gull - Larus heuglini

1-2: © Visa Rauste, 13-06-02. Syktyvkar, Russia.

In this bird, the tail and secondarie still are juvenile. Regarding moult extent in remiges and rectrices, this comes close to some intermedius Lesser Black-backed Gulls. This individual has quite a thin bill that is slightly drooping, a feature that seems quite common in Heuglin's Gull.
