The western gull (Larus occidentalis) is a fascinating seabird found along the coastlines of North America. From Isla Magdalena to Anacapa Island, these juvenile gulls can be seen feasting on tuna crabs, their favorite delicacy. The sight of these young birds eagerly devouring their meal is a testament to their resourcefulness and adaptability. Anacapa Island in Channel Islands National Park provides a safe haven for western gull families. Here, adult gulls diligently care for their chicks, ensuring their survival in this harsh coastal environment. The bond between parent and offspring is heartwarming as they navigate the rocky cliffs together. Venturing further north to Yaquina Head in Newport, Oregon, we witness another captivating scene.

This feat showcases its ability to thrive in diverse ecosystems and secure nourishment even from challenging prey. Whether observing them feeding on tuna crabs or witnessing tender moments between parents and chicks on Anacapa Island, one cannot help but admire the beauty and tenacity of the western gull (Larus occidentalis). These sightings across different locations highlight how this magnificent bird has adapted to various habitats along North America's coastline – truly making it an iconic symbol of our shores.
