Gulls of North America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780764362941)

Although they are familiar and amusing characters, gulls are frequently dismissed as common "parking lot" birds or because their diverse species can be hard to identify. Both assumptions disregard the beauty and grace of gulls, which are among the most approachable of North America's birds. Ranging in size from the dovelike Little Gull to the eagle-like Great Black-Backed Gull, their behavior and habitats are equally varied.

• A user-friendly introduction to the plumages of 27 North American gull species in different stages of maturity
• More than 500 color photos with detailed captions
• Foldout comparison guides

This photographic field guide allows readers to better appreciate these charismatic birds by learning shortcuts for easy identification in the field.
