- A group of Ring Billed Gulls is called a; Flotilla / Screech / Savaging / Squabble.
- This is considered the most common gull and also known as the "Fast Food Gull". Yes because of its eating habits.
- This gull has a very distinct Black ring around the tip of its bill. It also has very distinct black wing tips with a touch of white place on those tips. These bird were sought after their plumage for hats,clothing and writing quills. Who knew?
- I love watching this Squabble glide on the thermals.
This year I am challenging my grand kids and their friends to a "Big Year". During 2013 we will be observing, identifying, and recording all our sightings of birds.
