Belvide Reservoir, Staffordshire. North American species of gull, a few make it to Europe each year. Bird was mobile around the reservoir, and usually quite distant but eventually made it to the SE corner where it was quite close in. Lifer for me.
This happy Buddha is the wisest of us all.
Accept to make a fool of yourself, once in a while. And graciously laugh out loud about it.
It's the surest way to prevent others from making a fool of you.

I learnt a new thing about Black-Headed Gulls today! The species-specific part of their scientific name (Chroicocephalus ‘ridibundus’) means ‘laughing ‘ and comes from their ‘ke-ke-ke’ and ‘kverarrr’ calls. In view of this, the Black-Headed Gull is referred to as the ‘laughing’ gull in other languages, such as German.
Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

I don't believe I have ever photographed one of these before. I got a number of images of laughing gulls at Anna Maria Island on our visit there, but this one was the most interesting.

Leucophaeus atricilla
(Laughing gull / Gaviota reidora americana)
The laughing gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) is a medium-sized gull of North and South America. Named for its laugh-like call, it is an opportunistic omnivore and scavenger. It breeds in large colonies mostly along the Atlantic coast of North America, the Caribbean, and northern South America.
The two subspecies are: L. a. megalopterus – which can be seen from southeast Canada down to Central America, and L. a. atricilla which appears from the West Indies to the Venezuelan islands. The laughing gull was long placed in the genus Larus until its present placement in Leucophaeus, which follows the American Ornithologists' Union.
