Laughing Gull

(Leucophaeus atricill)

Description:

Laughing Gulls were ever-present in the greater Corpus Christi area. My second day at Aransas NWR on Monday, was only a half day, so I drove south to Rockport where I would board a boat (the Skimmer) on Tuesday to see a whole new side of the reserve. In exploring the town I saw the ever-present Laughing gulls perched on a fenceline. After stopping I noticed I’d stumbled onto the Rockport Rookery, an 8+ acre site the city purchased from the Beasley family.
