Seagulls Silver gull and boats, sydney harborOne seagull was loudly crying and meanwhile other seagulls gathered on the boat one after another. Taken in March, 2019 in Watsons Bay, New South Wales, Australia. The silver gull Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae or Larus novaehollandiae is the most common gull of Australia. It has been found throughout the continent, but particularly at or near coastal areas. Silver gulls are found in all states of Australia, as well as New Zealand and New Caledonia. It is a common species, having adapted well to urban environments and thriving around shopping centres and garbage dumps. Their successful adaption to urban habitats have seen their population increase in areas of human activity, with the availability of nesting grounds the only limiting factor on population growth.
