We have a fat and happy gull population here in Gloucester. I am always surprised when I visit other areas on the coast by the apparent lack of gulls in some areas. Here in Gloucester, the population is thriving because the birds do take advantage of food source from the fishing industry. In places where the industry has collapsed, the gulls are very few in number.

They sure know where the easy pickins are Steve!
I love gulls. They are in abundance on the Tennessee River every winter. Great shots!
Those are outstanding shots - and very funny. I'm forwarding this post to my husband, who constantly talks about Great Blue Herrings and Heron Gulls. Maybe this will finally set him straight!
The last photo is very well captured. We have an immense population of gulls here in Canada too. Not sure what kind though. They have black wing tips and tail.
They are wise creatures Steve, they go were the money is.{:)
Great shots! Trust a gull to not miss an opportunity
Wow! Great shots. These guys are amazing. Following up on Giraffe Head Tree's comments, I was amazed the first time I saw them in the Walmart parking lot here in Huntsville, AL. Now I see them in lots of places all over town. Such opportunistic birds, these gulls.
...smart birds! Love that last shot...and the first and second for that matter!
