Red-billed Gull adult and immature, Castlepoint, Wairarapa coast 17/01/19
Observation details
Perched on a roof, flying back and forth over the beach and standing in a broad shallow pool in the sand. At least three immature birds lowering and extending their heads forward and uttering short, quiet squeaking calls while nearby adults repeatedly called harshly and loudly. One immature with an adult occasionally pecked at the sand, but did not appear to pick anything up.
