In 2024 the Herring Gull was split into four species: American, European, Vega and Mongolian Gull. Luckily I took some pictures on my last trip to London. This one was happily floating on a lake in Hyde Park in the center of the city. I recently bought the Gull Guide and plan to study it so I can potentially find North Carolina's first European Herring or Vega. Apparently telling the early cycle birds is easier than the adults. This one is an adult bird.
