The black-billed gull is the most endangered gull in the world. Although it is usually thought of as a seagull, this gull is found on major rivers (especially braided rivers), lakes, and farmland in the breeding season. You might even see black-billed gulls in central Christchurch, where a breeding colony has established on the ruins of a former office block.

We love this humble bird that goes around just doing its thing amongst all the common Red-billed gulls. This soft grey gull, that is critically endangered, has stolen our hearts. Let it woo you too. #blackbilledgull4life
