Re: [cobirds] gull

Thanks for the report, Scott.  How amazing to know that California Gulls might live that long.  What a fortunate recovery.

Best, Pam Piombino

Hi Everyone..

As many of you know Dr. Ron Ryder passed away a number of years ago.

Since his passing I have been receiving his band recoveries from the
banding laboratory.

I just received a band recovery of one of his California Gulls that he
banded on 9/16/1984  in Colorado and it was just found dead on

3/5/2019 in Weld County making it a 35 year old bird.  According to the
website Wildlife Expectancy,   California  Gulls are expected to live
for 20-24 years.
