Even though this one is well inland and lives around fresh water we still call them seagulls.
He is much smaller than his saltwater cousins.

He doesn't look too happy. Perhaps he's too far from the sea to get a decent meal.
ReplyDeleteYou cought him very close, nice!
ReplyDeleteGreat capture Andy. Looks like he knows his business.
ReplyDeleteDam ugly things, we see them chasing the tractors ploughing the fields or on the rubbish tips
ReplyDeleteThis ring-billed gull looks like a noisy one! :)
ReplyDeletegreat photo! he looks like he's yelling at someone, "hey, give me that french fry"! i love seagulls :)
ReplyDeleteI used to see these guys in Chicago when I was working there. They have made a home along Lake Michigan.
ReplyDeleteYou got a great close up of this one. I can even see that ring around the bill and that tiny spot of red by the mouth.
ReplyDeleteWe have flocks of them here in the Midwest. Every spring large flocks can be seen following tractors working fields. Apparently they find food turned up by farm implements. We are more than 1,000 miles for the sea in any direction.
ReplyDeleteThat's a terrific close-up Andy. We often refer to them as sh^t hawks!
ReplyDeleteThey can be more of a pest than pigeons!
ReplyDeleteHe looks like he has something to say!
ReplyDeleteI would go with seagull, too. Lakegull sounds kind of lame. Though, if EG says it is a ring-billed gull, it is a ring-billed gull. EG knows birds.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a shot! Whatever kind of bird this is, I wouldn't want to mess with it:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic capture!
