A very dark and clean 1cy fuscus type.
I do not see anything wrong for fuscus fuscus...

hi ronald, theo, martin
since i'm not member of club300 i'm not posting there but here.
to me the bird also looks like a baltic gull. i know it's difficult but the whitish underside is something which is not unseen in 1st cycle baltics, like in this:

also structurally the bird fits (bill, elongated shape) a fuscus rather than a heuglini, but that might be somewhat subjective.
best,
lou
