B3 give me an ID?
Anyone up for a challenge? Name the gulls. Hints: 7 species from Texas 5 or 7 Wandering Texans. Find the easier ones first. Don’t rely on size, some are in the background, some in foreground, etc. This may be difficult!
Nice and cool on the Oregon Coast!! Here’s a few birds and sea creatures. I’ll let you gull aficionados give me an ID on these west coast gulls. Hint: 3 species.
Seriously thinking about taking my yak out onto White Rock Lake next time!!! (For the gulls, not the girls!!) Roosting on the water in 1000s and weren’t disturbed by the rowers.
In reference to Gull #4, here’s a comparison between adult Herring and LBBG with a Swainson’s Hawk tossed in for mnemonic. Still need some IDs on some of the recent gull pix
Gull #3 for Gulls class. (Same day, location) Gull #3 is an Adult Herring. We can see that this is an adult gull. Pretty distant shot, but if you zoom in we don’t see any ring as in ring bill, but more telling the transition from gray underwing to black underwing tip is more gray-to-black…
