I will go out on the limb here and say, that if the records committee
wouldn't accept this for a Iceland Gull for Utah, it is hopeless and this
species will never be added to our state list.  This bird looks like a
classic Iceland Gull in my opinion, and based off the California Gulls
behind, is nowhere near big enough to be a Glaucous, and at worst this may
be a Kumlien's type (still considered an Iceland Gull ssp).  However, this
bird would seemingly fit the bill for Iceland.

Great lookig bird!  And a nice way to kick-off the winter gulling!

Good Birding

Tim
