Your going to hate my guess, but it looks like an immature seagull to me!

You could be correct, I have seen a bunch of juveniles. Unfortunately I caught it going away.

Definitely a juvenile gull. I believe it’s a 1st cycle Herring.

makes sense there are so many at DW Fields as people feed the ducks. There are so many gulls it is like the movie "The Birds"
