LoL, indeed it's not tho', it's the Great Black-Backed Gull. Damn those taxonomists!!!

Yeah but like, my dog is a dog but it's also a Labrador and also has a name. The great black-backed gull is also known as Larus marinus which means sea gull, and is also commonly referred to as a seagull. By what notion is that not a seagull?

By the simple minded notion of my sense of humor. ;-) Any more hares you'd like to split?

If we split a hare we'll both go hungry cause hares are small and I'm vegetarian
