Pacific Gull Larus pacificus
Sometimes mistaken for an Albatross by non bird watchers, the black and white Pacific Gull is a very large gull, but a bird of the shore rather than of the oceans. It has a massive yellow bill with red, wedge shaped tip and yellow legs. The Pacific Gull is much less common and is shyer than the abundant and aggressive Silver Gull, and is restricted to the seashores of the southern half of Australia.

Pacific Gulls feed on a range of animal food, including clams, snails and sea urchins that they break by dropping onto rocks while in flight. Their nest on the ground, often hidden by vegetation or rocks, is well made out of seaweed, twigs and other plant material. They lay one or two eggs.
