Western Gull, Puget Sound, Washington

A western gull (Larus occidentalis), displaying its non-breeding plumage, rests on the rocky shore of Puget Sound, Washington. Most adult gulls have red spots at the tips of their bills; newborn chicks peck at that spot to get the adult to regurgitate food for it to eat.
