G'day Ian,
Are these images at 100% and have you got any more no matter about image
quality.
Kelp Gulls are variable but if this is a Kelp Gull it is very odd indeed,
it's plumage is sort of very advanced and very retarded all in the one bird.
Did the bird have a clean white tail or were there some dark edges to
retained outer tail feathers blown away in the white at low resolution. It
certainly looks like a clean white tail with reasonably clean belly and
incredibly substantial trailing edge to secondaries on what I can only guess
is an otherwise retarded third winter bird.
Cheers Jeff.

I was at Cape Bridgewater yesterday and photographed a seabird that I cannot
ID. Images can be found at

(Sorry about the image quality - the bird was about 400 m offshore so images
are heavily cropped) Thanks, Ian Smissen ===============================
