Yellow-legged Gull 1CY 14 Dec 

This bird is confusing. It seems to have some grey scapulars and new inner greater coverts. It is very late in its moult for a 2CY, but I think it is a 1CY and these feathers are very late-moulted 2nd generation feathers, which explains why they are grey - but I may be wrong.
