My email just updated and I got your second message. Definitely looks like a Nelson’s to me.

A noticeably large gull, white-winged lineage, but unusual level and arrangement of darkish tones on primaries. Got a few grab shots before it left the area. I’m a little rusty on my larids (and have looked at way too many early cycle gull variations this winter to be sure of anything anymore), but is this a Nelson Gull (Herring x Glaucous hybrid)? Didn’t look right for Kumlien’s but others may diosagree.
