Field Notes

Habitat:

Ring-billed Gulls often congregate around humans, at garbage dumps, parking lots, and freshly plowed fields. While the species is common on coastal beaches, particularly during winter, many Ring-billed Gulls lead inland lives, never setting eyes on the sea.

Notes:

There were quite a few today parading around in their nonbreeding plumage. I didn't see any Laughing Gulls today, which is what I most commonly see.
