About These Birds
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.
Ross's Gull
Ross's Gull, 29–32 cm, is a delicate Arctic gull breeding in Siberian tundra, with its winter range largely unknown — possibly far out in the pack ice. Rosy flush to underparts in breeding plumage; wedge-shaped tail; black neck ring. Feeds on invertebrates and small fish along ice edges.
