I am puzzled as to why Gulls and Terns are almost passed over, with less than two pages of text devoted to a family description and only six species accounts (four gulls, two terns).

All photos were taken in Australia in December 2016 – locations included Brisbane and surroundings, Alice Springs, Ayers Rock, Melbourne, and the coast near Melbourne.

The oldest Laysan albatross was last seen raising a chick on Midway Atoll in 2016, at age 66.

At the time, Justice and Mesker were 17 years old.
