Subject: Slaty-backed Gull: formal write-up and references

Here's my "official" report of the Hammond SLATY-BACKED GULL
with references to text and on-line descriptions and photos.

The most common "criticism" of the Hammond gull is that it
doesn't seem dark enough. I have included to references for
photographs that show birds of about the same darkness.
