Stand-up Comedian Non-breeding Laughing Gull, <i>Leucophaeus atricilla megalopter</i>, not sure about the subspecies. First serious attempt at gull ID years ago on the Atlantic Coast drove me crazy, because the juveniles, 1st-year, 2nd-year, and non-breeding adults all look different from each other and the breeding adult shown in the guide. Velvia+ Happy Wing Wednesday!
