Wednesday, February 24, 2010

This winter adult Ring-billed Gull is an easy ID. The Ring-billed Gull is most common here on Cape Ann in the winter.

Chris said...: Hi Steve,
These are wonderful shots of it!!! It looks like we are getting plenty in Iceland now.... We started to see some last spring and it turns out that they are all over the country now! Even around Reykjavik main pond... I think it's starting to colonize our area and even hybrids with common gull have been seen!; February 24, 2010 at 8:20 AM

The Early Birder said...: I wish it was more common over here. One I have yet to see in UK.
Super close ups Steve.; February 24, 2010 at 1:10 PM
Roy said...: Yes great shots Steve.
We occasionally get a rare visitor of these to the SW of England from over the pond. More frequently we get a Mediterranean Gull which is similar.; February 24, 2010 at 4:01 PM
