How Red-billed gull hunts for food

The Red-billed Gull (*Chroicocephalus scopulinus*), native to New Zealand, hunts by a unique method called "foot paddling" or "foot kicking." It stamps or paddles its feet in shallow water or wet sand, creating vibrations that mimic raindrops, which flush out hidden prey like small fish, insects, and crustaceans. This causes the prey to move, allowing the gull to quickly seize it with its beak. This technique highlights the gull's adaptability and resourcefulness in diverse coastal environments.
