Short-Billed Gull

(Larus brachyrhynchus)

Description:

When I met these birds in 2005, we called them Mew Gulls. Now they are known as Short-Billed Gulls. Of all the places I visited on my 2005 expedition to Alaska, Watson Lake was one of my favorite stops. It was where I first met Red-Necked Grebes and Mew Gulls.
