  Looks like a first-winter Herring Gull.

• Hart Noecker said:

  Unidentified? Nobody bothered to ask the bird's name?

  Thanks! I changed the caption to Herring Gull.

  According to several NYT articles, the Gull was owned by a Daniel Asay, of the North Shrewsbury Ice Yacht Club. See for example NYT of Feb 22, 1914 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E07E6DC1E39E633A...

• swanq said:

  More on the owner (Daniel V. Asay) at www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=23307487

• Richard Norton said:

  I added him to Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_V._Asay

• JoForLife said:

  Daniel V. Asay was my great-great-grandfather and the Gull was built for him by Joseph Lake. I haven't yet discovered the exact year it was built but it was mentioned in an article in the Red Bank Register as early as 1906. He sold it in 1917 to Robert Johnson.

• Wystan said:

  In February, 1914, entrants from the North Shrewsbury and South Shrewsbury Ice Yacht Clubs contentended for the annual North American Ice Yacht championship on the Shrewsbury River, in Red Bank, New Jersey. Here's the report in the New York Times, February 16, 1914: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=940CE...

  Percival Gull Six

• Gordon Riley said:

  I think it is Jean Batten in her Gull Six, G-ADPR, one of her long-distance record-breaking flights.

• Gordon Riley said:

  Although flown by the Shuttleworth Trust in the UK for many years it was sold and is now displayed in the terminal building at Auckland International Airport, NZ flic.kr/p/sNjtU
