No problem, another clue is size, a Little Gull is about the same body size as a Blackbird but with much longer wings.

This is an adult non-breeding Black-headed Gull. The bill is too long for a Little Gull which would be highly unlikely in Austria anyway, being far away from both its breeding and wintering sites.
