Herring Gulls Nesting in Artificial Goose-Nesting Structures

Author Institution: Winous Point Shooting Club Herring gull (Larus argentatus) nesting in artificial goose-nesting structures was documented at the Winous Point Shooting Club, Port Clinton, Ohio, 1974-78. Gulls and Canada geese (Branta canadensis) nested in 14—28% and 12—23% of the structures, respe...
