"I'm likin' the new camera! Winter adult plumage Black-headed Gull. These look very similar to North America's Bonaparte's Gull, which favors open water. So I was surprised to find that these seem to occupy the niche in Great Britain that Ring-billed Gulls occupy in the US: smallish gulls that can be found well inland; abundant, especially around human habitation -- well, alright: ""garbage gulls""."
