Herring Gull




This crazy bird has been seen all around in our life every since we were little. Its Latin name is Larus Smithsonianus. This bird loves to eat sea invertebrates, fish, items in our trash and even other birds eggs. When it reproduces, it nests on the ground and near the ocean and only has 3 eggs. Everyone has seen what a herring gull looks like but if you haven't; its white with a grey back and wings and its legs are pink while the beak is yellow. One of the coolest things I found out about this bird is that it is very competitive. It will steal and fight for its food and not care about the apposing bird.
