| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Jim and Karole Fuller is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: All other adult dark mantled gulls have pink legs, except the Yellow-footed gull which is seen at the Salton Sea, and extreme southwest California. That bird has never been seen away from that area, and should be noticeably larger than a Lesser black backed gull. The European race of the Herring gull has yellow legs, and one has been seen on the east coast the past two winters. That bird should be larger, and does not have a dark mantle. | The original documentation form event lasted from 14:03:00/14:27:00. |
