They are common around here. I am right between Lakes Erie and Ontario
so there is a good supply of them at each lake, but they come inland and
swarm famer's fields when they are plowing. There are often called shit
hawks or dump ducks. If you are trying to find a garbage dump it is
usually a good idea to look in the air and if there are a bunch of gulls
circling around there is a good chance it is the dump.
