Ring Billed Gulls

I saw some sea gulls flying up and down the Missouri river. Occasionally they would dip down to the river and get something.

I ID these as Ring-billed gulls because of the black wing tip with ringed bills and they are in Missouri in the winter. The ringed bill is not clear but I don't see any other gulls having a spot on the top of their bills.

I noticed that we are located on the northern edge of their range. These gulls might be passing through on their way south.

And His sovereignty rules over all."
