Field Notes

Description:

These look like like juveniles and/or sub-adults, and I still have my doubts about the ID. According to the range, I still go with Larus fuscus; if anyone have another suggestion, you're welcome...

Habitat:

Large body of shallow water in a very dry region, Turkana: Turkana lake.
