Canto

Gulls do not have a true song in the traditional sense. Their vocalizations are primarily calls.

Richiami

A wide repertoire of harsh, raucous calls. Common calls include the 'long call' (a series of loud, ascending and descending notes, often used for territorial display or alarm), 'choking call' (a rhythmic, guttural call used during courtship or territorial disputes), 'mew call' (a softer, plaintive call), and various alarm calls and contact calls. Calls vary significantly between species.

Quando vocalizzano

Vocalize year-round, but calls are most frequent and intense during the breeding season for territorial defense, courtship, and communication within the colony. Also vocalize while foraging, in flight, and at roosts.
