Gull Silhouette Challenge
Anyone up for a challenge? Name the gulls. Hints: 7 species from Texas 5 or 7 Wandering Texans. Find the easier ones first. Don’t rely on size, some are in the background, some in foreground, etc. This may be difficult!

Iceland Gull Texas City Dike
Here’s a gull we found towards the end of our time at Texas City Dike on Gulls FT. Who can ID it? (Please stay mum if you were present for the sighting, at least till it is IDed).
