Last year we saw this 2cy gull at a landfill site in Western France, we thought of a species but we read another one in the ringer's file...

Which species for you?
Any comment would be appreciated. (No other pictures of those sightings.)

So I thought (more exactly I hesitated between HG and YLG)...
Ringed Flat Holm Island, Great Britain...
Later I'll show you another picture taken 5 months later.

Looks to be an elegant bird, maybe graellsii?
