Artist's Description
The Bonaparte's Gull is a small species, larger only than the Little Gull and the Saunders's Gull among all gull species. Adults are 28-38 cm (11-15 in) long with a 76-84 cm (30-33 in) wingspan and a body mass of 162-270 g (5.7-9.5 oz). They have a black hood and a short thin dark bill. The body is mainly white with a pale grey back and upper wings. The underwing is pale and the wingtips are dark. They have pink legs. In winter, the head is white. These birds forage in flight or pick up objects while swimming or wading. They mainly eat insects, crustaceans, and fish.
