Great Black-backed Gull Juvenile
Larus marinus (juvenile)
Great Black-backed Gull juveniles range along coasts, harbours, beaches, and offshore waters after leaving the nest. They practice sustained flight and forage for fish, marine invertebrates, carrion, and discarded food. Their brown, mottled plumage takes several years to develop into the crisp adult pattern.
