Think you know gulls? Most people picture them as noisy beach scavengers stealing french fries, but there’s so much more to these clever and adaptable birds. In this episode of The Nature Wanderer, we dive into the fascinating world of gulls.

We’ll explore their intelligence, complex social behaviors, surprising nesting habits, and the important ecological role they play along coasts, lakes, and rivers. You’ll also discover the truth behind the name “seagull” and learn why gulls are more than just background noise at the beach.

Join me as we wander into the lives of these resourceful survivors and gain a new appreciation for one of nature’s most misunderstood birds.

Thanks for wandering through nature with me on another episode of The Nature Wanderer! How often do you get out in nature to connect? Not just hang out in nature but actually connect with nature? We have disconnected with the natural world around us and it is affecting our physical and mental health. It is time to get back to that connection with the natural world around us. Listen this week as I discuss the ways that we can better connect with the natural world around us.
