These gulls are bigger than the usual black-headed gulls with more brownish grey coloration. Heuglin's gull (1st winter) or other specis?

Thanks

Thanks Geoff!

I would suggest this is Slaty-backed Gull 1st winter instead of Heuglin's Gull. Note the black bill instead of black and orange bill, and the black tail
There is another post: Slaty-backed Gull
