About These Birds

Heermann's Gull

Heermann's Gull, 46–51 cm, is distinctive — dark grey body, white head (breeding), red bill. Breeds almost entirely on Isla Rasa in the Gulf of California, then disperses north along the Pacific coast to British Columbia. Kleptoparasite; steals fish from Brown Pelicans. Near Threatened; range highly restricted.

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.
