Let's Get Started With a Few Clues
- Chances are very high you have seen them outside their breeding grounds.
- They are loud and obnoxious.
- One may have stolen your lunch.
- They love fish, but I've also seen them chow down on french fries.
- They like to scavenge around the world at ocean shorelines.
- When they are young they are brown.
- The adults are mostly white and gray with black tipped wings.
- They basically span the entire globe.
Give up yet? How about a few pictures to help!
First a few picture of their breeding grounds so i don't give it away with the thumbnail! This particular breeding ground is Trout Lake Provincial Nature Reserve, in Ontario, Canada.
Finally Pictures I Took of a couple Herring Gulls
They are masters of staring you down!

Master Scavengers as Well!

Bonus Points for Constructive Criticism about this post. As I started writing this piece, this was far from the intended direction but I thought it would be more fun and engaging than the original direction.

Based on the up votes of some of my other posts, I'm shocked giving away free money didn't get more of a following quicker. But perhaps I rushed this new idea and didnt catch enough peoples attention. If that's the case you and the other 3 to follow and win SBD are really lucky! I will try another post of this nature. I even thought of a brilliant way to keep the answer secret while still rewarding your answer to the question!!! Which means I'll do a much harder description and picture, knowing most won't be able to get it, but I'll follow that up with much bigger rewards! I'm thinking $25, $15, $10, $5, and $1 SBD but with the same curation rewards!

A seagull, really huh I think just a feature or two not the whole body of the animal might be helpful.

At first this post was going in a way different direction, and as an experiment I have been promoting some of my posts to see the true interest in them. But then I hard a realization that if I'm going to give SBD away. I might as well give it to the loyal steemians who find value in my posts. So instead of promoting for everyone to see, I'm asking you to follow and resteem in hopes the same amount I wanted to spend promoting gets spent on those who truly want me to post more content!!!

As a place for improvement, you could ask the participants to provide a piece of information specific to a certain feature of the bird.
