About These Birds
Belcher's Gull
Belcher's Gull, 49–52 cm, is endemic to the Humboldt Current coast of Peru and northern Chile. Black mantle, white body, yellow bill with red and black band. Piscivore and scavenger; closely associated with fishing ports and anchovy-rich upwelling waters. Resident along its narrow coastal range.
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.
