Bruce Mactavish wrote (in litt.) "Yes this looks fine for a pure Glaucous Gull to me. A two year old bird with a slightly pale iris and diffuse black tip on bill with a tiny pale tip. No hint of darkness in folded primaries from what is visible in the three pictures. Bill size and shape of bird looks fine as well."
