About These Birds

White-winged Tern

White-winged Tern, 20–23 cm, breeds in wetlands from Eastern Europe to Central Asia and winters in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Australia. Breeding male: jet-black body contrasting with white wings. Insectivore; dips over marshes and rice paddies. Long-distance migrant.

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.
