About These Birds
Black Noddy
Black Noddy: 35–39 cm, wingspan 66–72 cm, all-dark seabird similar to Brown Noddy but smaller and more slender-billed with a sharper white cap. Breeds colonially on oceanic islands of the tropical Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. Nests in trees and cliff ledges. Feeds on small fish and invertebrates near the ocean surface.
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.
