This handsome gull posed nicely on a fishing pier in the Lima harbor, on a dull, foggy morning in June. Formerly known as Band-tailed Gull because of it's diagnostic tail marking, it resides along the strip of South American coast washed by the nutrient-rich Humboldt Current. This is a non-breeding adult, showing a grey head; in breeding plumage the head is white. One of a number of lifers we had that morning.
