Heermann's Gull, Las Tunas Beach, California

With a Pacific Ocean wave in the background, a Heermann's gull (Larus heermanni) rests on a rock overlooking Las Tunas Beach near Malibu, California. This is an adult Heermann's gull, displaying breeding plumage. Heermann's gulls are native to the west coast of North America, from southwestern British Columbia to Mexico. The gulls are usually found at the shoreline or very far out to sea; they are very rarely spotted inland. Nearly all of the Heermann's gulls nest on Isla Rasa in the Gulf of California.
