A Great Black-backed Gull has been reported here and after about five trips I finally found it. Not being an adult it was hard to pick out amongst all the other gulls.
The Great Black-backed Gull is No. 331 on my list of Bird Species Photographed in Missouri.
A few of the birds seen, complete set and larger sizes in gallery.
