   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">At Gold River on the Gull Point on Thursday I saw a gull</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">I&#39;m not sure of the ID.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">it is a first cycle gull and could be an Iceland Gull or a Kumlien&#39;s Gull</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">with almost&#160; white wings. It is smaller than the numerous Herring Gulls.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A black bill showing&#160; a bit of pink at the base. The body is cram coloored</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">with brown speckles. Legs pink and long wings well beyond the tail feathers</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">while sitting. The bird was having a bath and spread its wings once</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">so I got&#160; a good look at the colors.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">An interesting bird.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Enjoy the winter</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
