🦉 The common gull or sea mew (Larus canus)
📚 Larus (lat.) seagull; sea bird
📚 canus (lat.) gray
At the end of April, as soon as the ice begins to drift and the big river thaws from the ice, you can already see seagulls flying by.
And it is not surprising, because the main diet of these birds is fish.
Seagulls live along the river, and you can only see them there. However, this is not the case everywhere.
Every spring I go to visit my relatives in the neighboring region. And there they have, seagulls generally behave like pigeons. They dig in garbage dumps and landfills, guzzle everything. And this is very surprising for me.
Such different behaviour. In my city, these are wild near-water birds, in the neighboring city, they are street scoundrels.
