#58 August 17, 2006 Ring-billed Gull - Larus delawarensis (North Bergen, NJ)

Gulls are my favorite birds, most are accesible and numerous. They also teach good birding, having many plumages, 4-year gulls like the Great black-backed Gull having the most. Their behavior entices note taking and spurs memory. I have seen 8 spp so far, I hope to see them all one day.
