  1. Hi, it's a lovely shot, but those definitely aren't shearwaters, they're gulls, probably western gulls. Posted 8 years ago

The western gull is a large white-headed gull that lives on the west coast of North America and the Pacific Ocean. The western gull ranges from British Columbia, Canada, to Baja California, Mexico. It was previously considered conspecific with the yellow-footed gull of the Gulf of California.
