About These Birds
Slender-billed Gull
Slender-billed Gull, 37–40 cm, breeds in Mediterranean and Black Sea saltmarshes and lagoons, wintering on West African coasts. Distinctive long slender bill gives a front-heavy profile; white head lacking hood, pinkish-white underparts. Feeds on fish and invertebrates in shallow coastal waters.
Mediterranean Gull
Mediterranean Gull, 36–38 cm, has expanded dramatically since the 1970s, breeding across Europe from the Black Sea to Britain. Pure white body, jet-black hood in breeding plumage — the only gull with entirely white wingtips. Piscivore and invertivore; nests in colonies, often with Black-headed Gulls.
