A team of dedicated board members, volunteers, and student interns has published every page in Volume 9. This volume includes 360 images of paintings and lyrical descriptions of birds, now available online for everyone to enjoy anywhere in the world. This is a monumental task. Each volume requires approximately 400 hours to photograph, edit, transcribe, catalog, and publish online. We need your support to complete this work.
If you're tech-savvy, have a good eye, are meticulous with details, and love structured data, please consider volunteering by emailing us at hello@rexbrasher.org.
We encourage all bird lovers and supporters to consider a monetary donation to support our mission to make Rex's work available for everyone. You can provide a one-time or recurring donation online.
These Gulls reverse the usual migration route, traveling south, within 18 degrees of the equator, to breed. The honeymoon extends two weeks or more and courting antics are most ludicrous. They are clever fishermen and understand necessity of approaching a school of fish from the rear so as not to scare them into sounding. Altho capable of catching their food they permit Pelicans or Boobies that honor if they are in the vicinity. They work in pairs close to a Pelican and when the awkward bird throws its head up, a Gull seizes any part of the fish that is exposed and snatches it from the pouch.
In Winter, Pacific coast from northern Washington, south to Central America. Breeds on Pacific coast of Mexico.
