Glaucous-winged Gulls, SE Alaska: July 2018




Immature Glaucous-winged Gull






These birds take a variety of food, including live animals in addition to carrion and garbage.  They have been known to kill and eat rabbits and pigeons, as well as Glaucous-winged Gull chicks.







The patterns on their wings are much more intricate than those on the adult’s wings.
