You must have a garbage dump nearby...BTW, how close is Great Salt Lake?
Lots of gulls there....

i never really noticed, but...since my kids were asking me & i
hadn't a clue why....will one find seagulls across the country?

ie: @ dumps? we never lived far from the ocean, so it was funny
to see and hear them here in colorado..??

Those aren't seagulls. They are Dumpgulls. By definition, seagulls live
near the sea, dumpgulls live near the dump. Since you live near the dump
in boulder, you must be a......oh, never mind.

Rich,

They probably came in on a "Rocky Mountain High."

They will leave their home ground to get away from a storm sometimes.

When they do and find good,easy feeding, they'll hang around for awhile.

Sounds like you got blessed with a flight from Salt Lake City.

They can be as bad as a stray dog on rubbish day

CM,

Maybe you should listen to Scott when you sail. Look around you and see
what is taking place. Get your face out of the mug!

One of the Joys of sailing is watching the Gulls. "Jonaston Seagull" is
a story about Gulls. They can be a exercise in watching beautity when
they are soaring; as well as a pain in the ass when they are ****ting on
your boat. They are a very smart bird. You can learn a lot from watching
them. When they soar very high they will drift with the prevailing
winds. A very easy way for them to get away from an incoming storm. Just
might help you sometime.

Oh fer christ's sake Ole Thom.... I've seen seagulls at the dump in
Yellowknife..... that's over a thousand miles inland and way beyond
their normal flight paths.

They are scavengers... they'll fly anywhere to find food. The USA has
gulls right across the mainland.... coast to coast.

Anyone surprised to find gulls on the inland plains is just plain
stupid or not very observant of the world around them.

This is a case of an idiot opening their eyes.... treat it as such. The
person posting is dumber than a plank.
