Glaucous-wing
Gull - Larus glaucescens
The
gulls are white and gray birds. They are present all year round.
During the summer, the gulls are not seen in great numbers near the
village because they have lots to eat. They also nest on the islands.
When winter comes, however, they stick around the village because
they do not have much to eat. They wait for scraps of food whenever
someone empties his garbage.
The
gulls nest on islands without foxes during the summer. Their eggs are
gathered for food at certain times of the year. They are good-sized
eggs. They are olive with black spots all over them.
The
gull nest is made from grass and moss. They usually have three eggs.
It is best to gather the eggs after the first few days of being laid,
or else they will be incubated.
The
gulls are not choosy eaters. They eat meat and whatever they can find
to eat. The young gull is called chyaali{. It is gray in color. The
mature gull, on the other hand, is whitish and looks like it has been
washed clean.
