What is Europe's common gull?

The common gull, scientifically known as Larus canus, is a medium-sized bird found across Europe and parts of Asia. It features a grayish-white body, a black spot on its head during the breeding season, and long wings with distinctive black tips. Common gulls are typically found near coastal areas, lakes, and rivers, where they feed on fish, invertebrates, and scraps from human activities. They are known for their adaptability and can often be seen in urban environments as well.
