Herring gull (Larus argentatus)


The Herring Gull, Larus argentatus, is a large gull which breeds across North America, Europe and Asia. Some herring gulls, especially those resident in colder areas, migrate further south in winter, but many are permanent residents. Herring Gulls are also abundant around inland garbage dumps, and some have even adapted to life in inland cities.
