About These Birds
Grey-headed Gull
Grey-headed Gull, 39–42 cm, breeds across sub-Saharan Africa and coastal South America. Pale grey hood in breeding plumage, red-orange bill and legs. Omnivore and piscivore; frequents large lakes, rivers, and coasts. Partially migratory, dispersing broadly outside breeding season.
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.
