Close-up photograph of a Silver Gull with its beak wide open, showing the bright orange-red interior of its mouth. The bird's white head and plumage contrast with its distinctive orange-red bill and eye-ring. The eye shows a dark pupil surrounded by a thin orange ring. Background is softly blurred with blue and green tones. The gull appears to be calling or vocalizing.

And the last two from our visit to #Abergele #NorthWales a, couple of miles from where we live.
This one I noticed the #Gull nesting on top of the old school in the centre of Abergele near the Tesco where the cattle market used to be at the heart of the town.

Last week , decided to drive to Puerto Banus( Spain) walk to the end of pier, it was extremely windy , but the yellow legged gulls seemed to enjoy it .

More than a dozen examples of an unknown species of gull circling against a blue sky

The schedule called for a 4.2 mile run with 2 miles at a tempo pace completed under beautiful blue skies this afternoon which soon gave way to grey. Not usually fast enough with my phone to get bird photos but these gulls obliged by slowly circling for some time #running #gull

a picture taken from the inside of my car of a juvenile gull standing the hood with dark, jagged rocks by the ocean behind it. the bird has mottled brown and white speckled plumage; its beak is open, and its dark eyes are visible. in the background, the sea is rough with white-capped waves crashing against a rock breakwater under a heavily overcast, gray sky.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme as set by Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social
is #OpenBeak, any bird with its beak open, the Alt Theme is #Gulls.
This juvenile American Herring Gull on the hood of my car asking for a treat fits both themes.

#Gull is the alt theme for #BirdoftheDay, and a chance to share the Bonaparte's Gull from a recent dawn trip to Las Gallinas. Are you allowed to have a favourite gull? #Birds 🪶 #ECK

Against a deep blue sky flies a mostly white gull. We see the face in good light and in profile. S/he has a yellow eye and a yellow beak. The bill has a black band toward the tip. The feet are tucked up neatly under the tail for better aerodynamics. The wings are outstretched to the sides.

Did I hear #gull was #BirdoftheDay? 😁

This #gull is enjoying the view as the #birdoftheday.

Here’s a favorite gull shot from the archives — a handsome and dignified Ring-billed #Gull enjoying a bit of peace on the #beach

A Gull stands in shallow water on the edge of pond ice. It has a small fish in its mouth and its wings are raised ready to fly away with the fish.

One of Alan's favorites - the #Gull for #BirdOfTheDay. I spotted a flock of seagulls at the pond for the first time this season and saw this one right before it caught a fish.

a gull hanging in the sky its wings wide open curved against the gusts of wind which are quite strong today. Its body and head are pure white + it has a long orange beak. Its broad wings are grey on the top tipped with black. In the background a leafless tree's branches sprawl against a blue sky
