Tis the Time of the Gulls

[calzephyr77]

Gulls are really quite populous here in Alberta, a landlocked province in Canada. I enjoy them a lot :-) Here's a senior food inspector on patrol!

Gorgeous! Do you know what kind it is?

No, no idea...he might be a ring billed gull. I checked Google Images and found a page. They are a breeding resident in our area :-) It's always funny - wherever they go and breed, they just show up in August and September and then leave by October.

I'm in the UK and never seen one (though they are annual vagrants here, albeit very rare on the east coast where I live), but I would certainly go with Ring-Billed.
