This is one of the world’s most delicate and attractive gulls. It was named after Sir Edward Sabine, an Anglo-Irish astronomer, ornithologist and explorer, who discovered the species just over two centuries ago off western Greenland. This juvenile was strikingly different from the usual black-headed gulls nearby: with scalloped edges to its feathers, bubblegum-pink legs and feet, and a rather pigeon-like gait.
