This juvenile nominate Yellow-legged Gull
(Larus michahellis michahellis) was photographed
by Ronald Klein in Baltic Germany in August 1995. Ronald comments:
"Michahellis juvenile (right). Compare it with the
juvenile argentatus to the left. A very small individual,
probably female. My experience is that when I show this slide,
this bird is identified as a Lesser Black-backed Gull - but the
bird is banded and was hatched in Italy.":
