This bird looks more like a "Viking Gull" (Hybrid argentatus x hyperboreus) for me than a real Glaucous Gull. Look the head shape and the tail pattern, furthermore the shaded primaries. Would be interested to hear more opinions.

It sure looks like a Glaucous-coloured Herring Gull type.
There was a picture published today of a Danish HerringxGlaucous. This one looks more like a Glaucous when looking at size and head/bill shape, in my opinion.
Thank you for your comments. I agree the look of the head is not typical for Glaucous Gull. But in this photo [url]http://www.pbase.com/arieouwerkerk/image/141022873[/url] it is more typical for Glaucous?
