Gulls, about 45 real kinds, inhabit beaches and inland waters while following ships for food. They fly up to 100 miles daily, rely on long wings, and scavenge from dumps, farms, and scraps. They eat fish, clams, worms, rats, and even animal carcasses, aiding waste cleanup. Corporate and environmental roles are noted with saltwater glands enabling sea water drinking.
Jane Seymour, born Joyce Frankenburg in England, dreamed of ballet but halted by an injury. She rose as Dr. Quinn on television and began acting in 1973. Now in Malibu with husband James Keach, she coaches dance and acting for troubled kids and maintains a Bath home.
In 1848 settlers in what is now Utah faced food shortages as crops failed. A large flock of gulls arrived from the Great Salt Lake, eating insect pests and saving the settlers’ stored food, an event seen as miraculous. The sea gull is Utah’s state bird and is honored by a Salt Lake City monument.
Terns are close relatives of gulls and smaller and slimmer. They fly with bills and heads pointed down, are graceful, and known as sea swallows. Terns dive for fish while gulls scavenge, land on water to feed, and some terns have forked tails.
Pelicans are distant cousins of gulls with long bills and sagging throats. They fly hundreds of miles daily in search of fish, scoop water with throat pouches, and swallow prey quickly. They live up to 25 years, with a lone 54 year old reported in captivity.
