Dear Tweeters.
Well, I also posed the same Vatican Gull question down here and got a

Sharpening the photo and enlarging shows pretty clearly that the legs are
yellow. Note also the weakly marked primaries.
Now that we've gotten that weighty issue out of the way, we can worry about
the upcoming relationship between the current US administration and the
beginning Vatican
administration...........................................................

PS If you wish to see the sharpened/enlarged photo, let me know.
