Gulls come in about 45 species including herring, California and ring billed varieties. They swim well with webbed feet and often follow boats for food but seldom venture far to sea. Gulls inhabit inland rivers and lakes and thrive by feeding at garbage dumps.
Flying gulls travel over 100 miles daily between feeding and nesting sites. They rely on long wings to catch drafts and glide often. Large gull flocks roosting near airports have caused plane collisions and pose risks to air travel.
Gulls follow coastlines in search of food and drop shells from height to crack them open. They eat fish, clams, worms, rats, rabbits, eggs, and eggshells. They scavenge at dumps and waste sites, clean up dead animals, and can drink salt water through specialized head glands.
