About These Birds
Iceland Gull
Iceland Gull, 50–64 cm, breeds in Greenland and winters on both sides of the North Atlantic to Great Lakes. White wing tips (like Glaucous Gull but considerably smaller), pink orbital ring. Omnivore; scavenges at harbours and landfills in winter. Two subspecies often treated as separate species.
African Skimmer
African Skimmer: 36–42 cm, black-and-white skimmer with a long bright orange-yellow bill where the lower mandible is longer than the upper. Flies low over large rivers and lakes, cutting the water surface with the lower bill to catch fish. Resident and partial migrant along large rivers and lakes of sub-Saharan Africa. NT.
