This data set is collected from a group of Ecologists that are survaying a population of
seagulls in the Auckland region. They catch, measure and release red-billed gulls at four
sites, two west coast locations and two east coast locations. This was conducted in
summer (February 2017) and in winter (August 2017) at all four sites. None of the
locations are major breeding colonies
Variables:
● WEIGHT: the weight in grams of the seagull
● LENGTH: the length in centimetres of the seagull
● LOCATION (longest is 9 characters): Piha, Muriwai, Maraetai or Waitawa
● COAST: "EAST" (either Piha or Muriwai) or "WEST" (either Maraetai or Waitawa)
● SEASON: "SUMMER" (data collected in 2017 Jan/Feb) or "WINTER" (data collected in 2017 Jul/Aug)
● SEX: "MALE" or "FEMALE"
