Appearance
The Silver Gull is the most common gull seen in Australia. It has been found throughout the continent, but particularly coastal areas. It has adapted well to urban environments, thriving around shopping centres and garbage dumps. Gulls are seabirds in the family Laridae. Most gulls, particularly Larus species, are ground nesting omnivores, which will take live food or scavenge opportunistically. Photo credit: Fir0002 |
