About These Birds

Black-billed Gull

Black-billed Gull, 35–38 cm, is endemic to New Zealand, breeding on South Island braided riverbeds. All-white plumage with a slender black bill and black-tipped wings. Endangered; river modification and mammal predation depress breeding success. Insectivore and piscivore in river and coastal habitats.

Andean Gull

Andean Gull, 45–48 cm, breeds at high-altitude Andean lakes from Colombia to Argentina, typically above 3000 m. Black hood in breeding plumage; white below with grey mantle. Largely insectivore, following cattle or foraging at lake edges. Partial altitudinal migrant descending to Pacific and Atlantic coasts in winter.
