The most difficult gull identifications are covered in this section, with many comparison photos illustrating the important separating features of plumage details are important in separating these hard to ID gulls. Sometimes subtle plumage details required to separate some very similar species, and these will carefully be explained and illustrated in photos and discussion.

Species covered here include: Herring, California, and immature Lesser Black-backed Gulls; Greater and Lesser Black-backed Gulls; Glaucous, Glaucous-winged and Iceland Gulls (including Thayer’s Gull); Western and Yellow-footed Gulls; Laughing, Franklin’s and Black-headed Gulls.
