About These Birds

Silver Gull

Silver Gull, 36–44 cm, is Australia's most familiar gull, present year-round on all coasts and increasingly inland. White body, grey mantle, red bill and legs. Opportunistic omnivore; thrives on human food waste and follows fishing boats. Expanding range inland as irrigation provides new habitat.

Andean Gull

Andean Gull, 45–48 cm, breeds at high-altitude Andean lakes from Colombia to Argentina, typically above 3000 m. Black hood in breeding plumage; white below with grey mantle. Largely insectivore, following cattle or foraging at lake edges. Partial altitudinal migrant descending to Pacific and Atlantic coasts in winter.
