Bonaparte's Gull - English Bay, BC I have always loved black-headed gulls including our winter resident, the Bonaparte's Gull. This is one of the smaller gulls we have here with only the Mew Gull as competition as the smallest gull. This photo was taken off Kits Beach in Vancouver, BC where several of these gulls will congregate in loose flocks to search the water surface for floating goodies. During the summer months, these birds fly north to the prairies and boreal forests to the pothole lakes of Alaska all the way east to Hudson's Bay. Michael W Klotz 2021 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
