Larus fuscus fuscus 3cy, April 24 2010, Eilat. Picture Amir Ben Dov.
Nominate fuscus by late April. No mirror on P10, which seems to be old 2nd gen, or maybe the tip is broken. The outer primaries seem to be in moult (one primary missing?). Black on bill and fringes on underwing greater primary coverts are indications for 3cy.
