I'm not very good at identifying birds, but this must be a seagull.
I spotted it just last week drinking from the mouth of this stream and, it was just a few yards from the sea.
If you ever visit Sitka, AK, take a stroll down the Totem Trail and you might just see a bunch of seagulls like this one.

I'm not sure how you could draw any other conclusion +Dave Bell
Awesome disguise. 🙂
Fantabulous!
Majestic butt!
That's some majestic bird twerkin' right there!
Oh my, must be the Grand Poobah of seagulls….

Without a doubt, a spectacular seagull … I hope to see some like this this summer at the beach 🙂
Great shot. It looks like an eagull seagull – one of the larger species. 🙂
Seagull in formal attire, of course.
+Liz C I don't exactly know what that means but it sounds pretty good!

+Debby Moran Oh, wow! Oh, wait…You meant the bird? ????
+HQSP Birds thanks for the share!
+David Q. Cohen Ah, yes, you are surely correct.
Awesome shot!
Gorgeous bird and photograph!! He's perfect for +Water Bird Wednesday !!

Sea gull? With that beak, feathers, and crown?
I've never seen one in the water before, but it sure looks dead-ringer like this image. [ Northern gulls typically have lighter coloring: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/a-second-look-at-seagulls-tips-for-id/ ]
Then again, I'm just an amateur ornithologist, unfamiliar with NW birds, so maybe I'm wildly off. But my eyes go with this:
allaboutbirds.org – Bald Eagle
Raptor
Raptor family, for sure. But which? With white crown & black feathers? Well, you decide – that's half the fun! 🙂 Oh, great photo, whatever it is!
