Wellfleet Harbor, MA. November 28th, 2005.
Franklin's Gull Larus pipixcan. Second-winter.
Denny Abbott traveled to Cape Cod to see this very obliging second-winter Franklin's Gull found a couple of days earlier by Blair Nikula.

Franklin's Gull Larus pipixcan. Left of the Common Eider. Second-winter plumage is dark,
including black primary tips, and is potentially confusable with Laughing Gull, but note the head pattern.
