It looks like a miracle a bird can fly like this.

If it is just moulting then I wonder why the other Common Gulls are looking smooth and fine.

Edit: I just went through all the other pictures and can see that not all gulls are looking "smooth and fine", but none as untidy as this one.

I have become quite good at identifying adult gulls in their final plumage. Young gulls are difficult:

I am totally unsure about the identification of this gull.
It could be a juvenile #HerringGull (#Silbermöwe) but something doesn't seem right. It could also be a juvenile #CommonGull (#Sturmmöwe).
Most likely it looks like a juvenile #RingBilledGull (Ringschnabelmöwe) to me. But that would be a sensation here in the area. That's why this is totally unlikely.

Any real gull experts here?
