About These Birds

Slender-billed Gull

Slender-billed Gull, 37–40 cm, breeds in Mediterranean and Black Sea saltmarshes and lagoons, wintering on West African coasts. Distinctive long slender bill gives a front-heavy profile; white head lacking hood, pinkish-white underparts. Feeds on fish and invertebrates in shallow coastal waters.

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.
