Mew Gull - Tsawwassen, BC
One of Vancouver's smallest resident winter gulls is the Mew Gull. They are relatively easy to spot given their size and the very petite look that they have. Mew Gulls are found on the coast shoreline as well as some smaller numbers just inland in fields and freshwater beaches with other gulls. Most white-headed gulls in the winter get a dirty head when they molt into their winter plumage which is funny given the black-headed gulls end up with a dirty white head in the winter.
