The Acrobat of the Sky

The black-headed gull is not just a skilled flyer—it’s a true aerial acrobat! These agile birds can hover, glide, and even catch insects mid-air. During breeding season, their heads turn dark chocolate brown, a stark contrast to their winter look. Adaptable and intelligent, they thrive in both coastal and inland waters, always on the lookout for the next opportunity.
