Seagulls are the most common seabirds and can always be seen in flocks on the beach. Anyone who has ever sailed at sea knows that seagulls like to follow ships.

Seagulls can predict the weather: they fly close to the sea surface, indicating that the future weather is good; wandering along the beach, indicating that the weather will gradually become worse; leaving the water in flocks to fly back to the beach or gathered in the rock crevices, indicating that a storm is coming.

The reason why seagulls can foresee storms is because their bones are hollow and tubular, filled with air without marrow. This not only facilitates flight, but also resembles a barometer, which can predict weather changes in a timely manner.

In addition, those hollow feather tubes on the gulls' wings also act like small barometers, sensitive to changes in air pressure.

For today's drawing tutorial, let's follow the instructions to learn how to draw a seagull. It is resting on a reef in the sea, and seems to have finished feeding for the day, or maybe tired of resting for a while.
