I have been cataloging my digital photos and came across these.  Why isn't
this bird a Slaty-backed Gull?

Note dark streak through eye.
Relatively unpatterned back
White patches in lower primaries; dark outer primaries
Wide, white crescents on folded wing.

Any comments from anyone with experience with the species?  Not the best of
photos, I will admit.
