[Birdtalk] Gull ID help

[Bryant Olsen]

I saw a couple Gulls yesterday at Farmington Bay that I need a little help with IDing. The First one is a gull that seemed to be Dark Mantled, but was smaller than the near by Herring Gulls and had Yellow feet. see photo at  http://flickr.com/photos/bryanto/3311745817/in/photostream/ I also saw a Juvenile Gull that was VERY pale, almost as much as the juvenile Glaucous Gulls near by, but it was very small, as small as the California Gulls it was with. Is this the possilbe Iceland Gull people have been talking about? See photo at http://flickr.com/photos/bryanto/3312575044/in/photostream/  I still have a lot to learn about IDing gulls, especially Juveniles, and could use a little help with these.
Thanks
Bryant Olsen
