摘要

Laughing Gulls (Leucophaeus atricilla) forage opportunistically along beaches, bays, and mudflats and in waste dumps, pastures, shopping malls, golf courses, and lawns. They feed on garbage, steal from other seabirds, cadge handouts from people, and even capture flying insects (Burger 1996). This adaptability carries over to the marine organisms that constitute their principal foods, which vary from fishes too large to be swallowed and must be picked apart to barely visible eggs, developing embryos, and minute interstitial invertebrates buried under several centimeters of intertidal sand. That they might also consume tiny crustaceans resident in seaweeds that float ashore has not, to my knowledge, been reported, nor is their apparent method of obtaining them ordinary.
