Laughing Gull (Leucophaeus atricilla), Martinez Lake, Imperial NWR, Yuma County

This Laughing Gull was discovered and photographed by Bobby Wilcox on 08 July 2013

There are fewer than 25 previous records.

The bird is a bit distant but the all black primary tips are clearly evident.  Adult alternate plumaged Franklin's Gull would have much more white in the wing tips.
