Photo 03: LBBG adult, February 07 2003, Boulogne/Mer, France (50.42 N - 01.34 E).
This adult LBBG has a grey-tone matching Scandinavian intermedius but is may also origin from nearby Dutch colonies. It has very fine head-streaking, running down in the hind-neck. The P10 mirror is relatively small. Note the characteristic posture: an elegant gull with a long wing-projection, a short neck and short tibia and a fine bill.
