The Common Gull is a medium-sized seabird found across much of the Northern Hemisphere, recognizable by its white and gray plumage and black wing tips. It matters because it is widespread and relatively abundant, making it useful for scientists studying bird populations and environmental changes, while also being familiar to people living near coastal and inland water areas.

The common gull (Larus canus) is a gull that breeds in cool temperate regions of the Palearctic from Iceland and Scotland east to Kamchatka in the Russian Far East. Most common gulls migrate further south in winter, reaching the Mediterranean Sea, the southern Caspian Sea, and the seas around China and Japan; northwest European populations are at least partly resident. The closely related short-billed gull was formerly often included in this species, which was then sometimes known collectively as "mew gull".
