Saw this little guy at Oyster Bay on Sunday. Can anyone tell me what it is? The Merlin app says it's a Common/Mew Gull. When I added it to my eBird list as a Common Gull (Mew Gull doesn't seem to be an option) it popped as a rare requiring further details. My field guides show the distribution of Mew Gulls all along the coast, so I'm guessing the rare relates to the Common Gull subspecies?
