Just another winged sea rat. (I so dislike gulls).
Photo ain't bad.

Looks like a California Gull, I have some pictures of them also, but, I am in California. They do migrate through Colorado headed south from Canada.

Definately not a Ring-billed. Maybe a Kelp Gull that does show up in the NE corner of CO according to my guide.
