3cy(/4cy) Caspian Gulls
1: © Ruud Altenburg, 21-05-03. Caspian Gulls can be tricky to age when the tail and an open wing cannot be judge (as in most of these pictures). Given the large black marking on the bill this probably is a 3cy but based on just this picture it's difficult to exclude the possibility of this individual being a 4cy.
