The bird on the left is a 1st summer Herring Gull; the head is far too streaky for a Caspian Gull, primary tips too brown, ground colour of the upperparts too pale, dark upperpart markings too extensive. Compare 1st summer Caspian Gull here; http://www.birdersplayground.co.uk/images/090410%20Caspian%20Gull%201st%20summer%20WEB%20083.JPG<br /><br /><br />Regards, Jim Clarke.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05798557627806730621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420149424799375265.post-56152253288502475342013-06-11T20:01:17.193+01:002013-06-11T20:01:17.193+01:00ThanksThanksLinacrebloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124364047946915676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420149424799375265.post-1080377173627264512013-06-11T02:30:24.619+01:002013-06-11T02:30:24.619+01:00I got it a few years back, so could be off sale th...I got it a few years back, so could be off sale there, ill have a look around see if I can find you a link to a retailerAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18394019811810862079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420149424799375265.post-24943515515474286592013-06-10T19:26:26.959+01:002013-06-10T19:26:26.959+01:00Hi Dominic,
