They ran and danced in their pink tutus. They followed mom, listening dutifully.
Earlier, a pair of young women held a cartwheel contest (six), and a dad helped his daughter try and fly a kite. Add-in a few cute pooches, & the beach & #boardwalk were plenty fun.

C'est vendredi, c'est AGU3L !

Ce soir : Quartier Libre, « on vous accueille comme vous êtes. » 😉

Notre dépannage #Linux de la semaine passée, s'est soldé par un succès : 🎊

Le disque était mal en point. L'utilisatrice est repartie avec un nouveau Mini-PC, don d'une administration d'Annecy et un OS #Xubuntu tout neuf et un disque SSD en prime.

Ce qui me suggère de relancer l'idée d'une table ronde #FindeVie #windows10

Je ferai un coin studieux et contacterai mon réseau.

#numeriqueresponsable si ça vous intéresse contactez nous.

Venez partager vos idées avec nous.

Hi, I love gulls, so I try to draw each one of the 54 gull species currently known on planet Earth!

Today: Common Gull

Even though its name is "common gull", it is a very special gull indeed. Why, you ask? Well, it's a gull, so duh? ❤️

It is a medium-sized gull that can be found from Iceland and Scotland to Eastern Russia. They migrate further south in winter and can thus also be found in the Mediterranean Sea, the Caspian Sea, and the seas around China and Japan.

It has three subspecies: the common gull, the Russian common gull, and the Kamchatka gull. The latter is considered a distinct species rather than a subspecies by some experts.

The closely related short-billed gull (which I will show you next, hehe) used to be included in the common gull species before becoming its own distinct species. The two were formerly known as "mew gulls".

FUN FACT
The word "mew", an onomatopoeic word used to desribe the sounds of gulls, is related to the German word "Möwe" (= gull). The newer word gull however has Celtic roots and has been used since the 1400s in English.

At first glance, a very rare example of a small 4 legged Gull preening itself on a rock in the middle of a lake. Upon closer examination it is actually 2 birds preening and the nearest bird has its head tucked away out of sight and its body lines up almost perfectly with the 2nd gull giving the impression it is a single gull with 4 legs.

Hi, I love gulls, so I try to draw each of the 54 gull species inhabiting our beautiful planet.

Today: Heermann's Gull

You probably guessed it, the name refers to a dude, namely 19th century explorer Adolphus Lewis Heermann.

As you can see, this species looks quite different from most other gull species; its body is much darker. Even their call differs from most other gulls' calls. So, this cutie is a bit easier to recognize than most of its fellows!

90% of their population lives in California, where they can often be seen together with brown pelicans from whom they steal food such as small fish or marine invertebrates.

Unfortunately, their status is "Near Threatened" because of climate change (-> habitat loss, less food) and because apparently people used to disturb them during breeding season to steal their eggs?! That's why Isla Rasa, where most of them breed, was declared a sanctuary in 1964.

Hi, I love gulls, so I will try to draw every single one of the 54 gull species inhabiting planet Earth.

Today: Black-Tailed Gull

The name is pretty straightforward; it has a black tail and it's a gull, so that's that. Its German name is "Japanmöwe" (Japan Gull). Even though it can not only be found in Japan but also at the coastlines of Eastern China, Manchuria, the Kuril Islands, the Philippines and even in North America, its cultural significance in Japan is pretty special.

Kabushima is a small peninsula in Northern Japan. At the local Shinto shrine, which was built by fishermen in 1269 and rebuilt several times, the black-tailed gull is worshipped as a messenger of the Goddess of fishery. Therefore, locals and tourists alike go there to feed the gulls and pay them respect. The result? 40,000 black-tailed gulls nest there every summer!

Fortunately, due to the absence of predators, the number of black-tailed gulls (already large) keeps increasing, so it's classified as "Least Concern".

FUN FACT
Gulls wouldn't be gulls if they didn't cause a bit of chaos from time to time, right? The black-tailed gulls regularly cause delays at Hanada airport.

Hi, I love gulls, so I try to draw each of the 54 different gull species on planet Earth.

Today: Olrog's Gull

Like many other gull species (and bird species in general, really), this bird is named after a person, namely biologist Claës Christian Olrog who first described it.

It's a large gull (50cm aka one mini blahaj in length, with a wingspan of 140cm aka almost three mini blahaj) with black wings and back.

Native to the Atlantic coast of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil, it mainly feeds on crabs. That's why, in its native range, it's also called "crab-eater gull" (what would be your name if you were called after your favourite food?)

Unfortunately, this beautiful birb is classified as "Near Threatened" due to its restricted breeding range and, as is so often the case, habitat loss.
