| This ring-billed gull, Larus delawarensis, is in breeding plumage; the bird's head and breast are snowy white. I took the picture on the East River in Brooklyn last week. Can spring be far behind? |

| This is an adult ring-bill in non-breeding plumage, taken a few months ago in the same place. Its head and neck are faintly streaked with grayish brown. |
