Ring-billed Gull
Larus delawarensis
Adult Ring-billed Gulls live around lakes, rivers, coasts, landfills, fields, and urban areas across much of North America. They are agile fliers that forage by walking, hovering, dipping to the water surface, and stealing or scavenging food when opportunities appear. Their diet includes fish, insects, worms, rodents, carrion, grain, and discarded human food. A notable fact is the dark ring around the yellow bill, a key field mark that gives the species its name.
