Steve N. G. Howell's "Gulls of the Americas" is an excellent book, with a few pages of pics per species, including various ages, birds in flight, resting, etc. Dave Cameron Denver On Thursday, February 13, 2020 at 5:48:04 PM UTC-7, Jared Del Rosso wrote: > > I've lived in Centennial for four

Jared, Colorado's own John Vanderpoel has produced two excellent videotapes for gull study, one for large gulls, the other for small (The Small Gulls of North America). I learned a lot watching them, and you will too. They are not difficult to find on line by searching his name and that title.
