There is an adult California Gull in Celina on the west end of Lake St. Mary's. It is currently perched on the edge of the spillway opposite Bella's Italian Grille. The mantle is darker than that of a Ring-billed Gull. The eye is dark and the head is rounded. The bill has a yellow tip followed by a black spot and then a red spot. The legs are yellow. It is smaller than the Herring Gulls a, but larger than the Ring-billed Gulls.
