They are often described as scavengers, though there is evidence that individual herring gulls specialize on particular food sources (intertidal, aquaculture, ocean, anthropogenic, freshwater).

| Bicycles: An Alternative form of Transportation in the Netherlands |

| Cēsu Pluriversitāte: (un)learning through the landscape, June 28, 2020 |
| 
Description: In the midst of the current climate (COVID) our orbit has become smaller, but not less valuable. Limitations can bring to the surface observations that would not have been visible before. The familiar paths within the neighborhood hold unnoticed details, questions, and knowledge. Landscapes consist of natural and human shaped relics that mark human values and skills. However, the familiar sometimes feels so known that we stop observing the way new landscapes draw curiosity.

They are inseparable and by changing one - we shape both. [show more] |
