All yellow legged gull, note the wing tip marking in the adult, and although it has sun on its back, it would have a slightly darker mantle(back)

My aim is to get a mint shot of the Cormorant but I've not been lucky enough yet to have the light in the right direction. I've heavily edited this but it is not good enough for me yet.
