Since I live on a river and not near any lakes, I seldom see seagulls in the area. But I can remember when we would travel up to Superior my kids used to love stopping at fast food places to feed french fries to the seagulls! I was surprised to learn how many different kinds of Seagulls there are. I just always assumed the seagull was a seagull.
The gulls stay around here all seasons and I often see them walking around at the grocery store and restaurant parking lots. There are different species but to me a seagull is a seagull except some have different colored feathers. 😊
I don't see them often enough to learn the different types. 28 different types in North America!
