Yesterday I posted a photo of our native NZ Red-billed gull (Larus novaehollandiae)
Here are some more but you will see an odd one out in the centre. It is a Black-billed gull (Chroicocephalus bulleri) also known as Bullers Gull and is found nowhere else in the world except here. Although seen often it is the most threatened gull species worldwide and numbers are diminishing fairly rapidly.
So this is a lone Tarapuka amongst the Tarapunga :)

Also his coloring is different - Strangely enough here too I see an odd one like this now and then but at least he/she is accepted by the others.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
He looks a little sneaky trying to blend in with the rest of them. This is a great photo Lyn.

This is very interesting! I'm glad that he's not ostracized for being different.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
Seems that it feels at ease in company with its red-billed friends, Lyn. Perhaps because the squawky one (from your previous post) is gone, ☺ .
Very fine one again, my friend.

Try to change what you can't accept, but accept what you can't change. Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.
A good capture of them all, makes me wonder why their numbers are dropping. tigs=^..^=
