How to Identify Gulls

Black wing-tips hath the Heermann's Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Franklin's Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Bonaparte's Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Ring-billed Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Mew Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the California Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Herring Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Thayer's Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Western Gull,
Black wing-tips hath the Black-legged Kittiwake,
Black wing-tips hath the Sabine's Gull,
Ah, heck, I think I'll just go look at ducks.
