The sea gull is a medium-sized gull with a long and thin beak. It lives on the shores of warm seas, salt lakes, and lagoons.
The sea dove differs from other gulls by its very thin and long beak. It is important for nature because it eats insects and small fish and serves as food for predators on the coasts.
