This occurs when a male joins them and is accepted into their association, bonding with one or both females (who nevertheless still retain their bond with each other).

Common Gulls are fairly sociable, often associating in flocks of up to 100 individuals; sometimes tens of thousands of birds congregate outside of the breeding season. Ring-billed Gulls are also gregarious.

Round 1, Side B: Match 18
[Image ID: Two pictures of gulls. The left is a European herring gull standing on the tip of a roof. The right is a common gull standing on rocks. /End ID]
The European herring gull (Larus argentatus) is a large gull that lives and breeds along the northern part of Europe. They typically measure 55-67 cm (22-26 in) in length and 125-155 cm (49-61 in) in wingspan. They have white underparts and head, light grey upperparts and wings with black tips and white "mirrors," yellow bill with red spot, and pink legs (though they can be yellowish instead). They eat crustaceans, carrion, and eggs and young of other birds. Despite their name, they do not have any special preference for herrings. They have been observed using pieces of bread as bait to catch goldfish, and rhythmically drumming their feet on the ground to create vibrations to drive worms to the surface.
The common gull (Larus canus) is a mid-sized gull that lives and breeds in northern Europe. They typically measure 40-46 cm (16-18 in) in length and 110-130 cm (43-51 in) in wignspan. They have white underparts and head, grey upperparts and wings with black tips and white "mirrors," yellow legs, and short greenish-yellow bill. They eat worms, insects, and fish as well as scavenge.

Cada 6 de septiembre se homenajea a una de las especies de aves más peculiares del mundo. Se celebra el Día Mundial de las Aves Playeras.
¿Por qué se celebra el Día Mundial de las Aves Playeras?
La principal finalidad de la celebración del Día Mundial de las Aves Playeras es la de promover la investigación y monitoreo de estas especies, así como destacar la importancia de su conservación a nivel mundial.
Es preciso proteger su hábitat y las rutas migratorias de estas aves, debido a que en las últimas décadas han mermado las poblaciones de aves playeras. De esta manera se garantiza la preservación de las distintas especies.
Las aves playeras: viajeras peculiares
Las aves playeras son aves acuáticas y migratorias del orden Charadriiformes que se encuentran en dunas, playas de arena, humedales costeros e interiores, pastizales y otros hábitats. Algunos de estos espacios se han visto afectados por los siguientes factores:
Contaminación ambiental.
Afluencia vehicular en zonas de nidificación.
Actividades recreativas.
Acecho de animales a sus nidos.
Las aves playeras se caracterizan por recorrer grandes distancias, provenientes de varias partes del mundo. Generalmente realizan dos movimientos migratorios anuales: en otoño hacia el sur para llegar a sus áreas de invernada y hacia el norte en primavera para la temporada reproductora.
Se estima la existencia de unas 217 especies de aves migratorias y residentes. Son uno de los grupos de aves más variados en forma y tamaño. Funcionan como indicadores de cambios ambientales.
Algunas de las características físicas de estas aves son las siguientes:
Dedos largos, que le otorgan estabilidad y equilibrio sobre sustratos blandos.
Patas largas y delgadas, para caminar en la arena, el lodo y en aguas poco profundas.
Picos alargados, para buscar alimento en el lodo y en el agua.
Plumaje moteado, que les permite camuflajearse y esconderse de depredadores. Con largas plumas primarias para volar a gran velocidad.
De acuerdo a cada especie de ave playera, se reproducen y nidifican en ciertas épocas del año. La mayoría de estas especies tienen hábitats alejados de las costas playeras. Muchas de ellas son aves migratorias de larga distancia.
Algunas especies de aves playeras
A continuación mencionamos algunas de las especies más conocidas de aves playeras:
Playero Canuto (calidris canutus)
Playero semipalmeado (calidris pusilla)
Ostrero americano (haematopus palliatus)
Playero rojizo (calidris canutus roselaari)
Playero Blanco (calidris alba)
Gaviota común (larus canus)
Gaviota del Pacífico (larus pacificus)
Alcatraz común (morus bassanus)
¿Cuál es tu ave playera favorita? Comparte información útil e interesante sobre el Día Mundial de las Aves Playeras en las redes sociales. Utiliza los hashtags #DíaMundialAvesPlayeras #AvesPlayeras #WorldShoreBirdsDay
