Armenian Gull
Larus armenicus Buturlin, SA 1934
The Armenian gull is a large gull found in the Caucasus and the Middle East. It was formerly classified as a subspecies of the European herring gull, but is now generally considered to be a separate species, although BirdLife International lumps it with the yellow-legged gull. Source: Wikipedia
