Aliasing gull → seagull
Link to alias

Reason:

I was originally in favor of seagull implying gull, with gull as an overall general species tag, but the two terms are actually used synonymously. So an alias (either as suggested, OR reverse) would be best, imho

In landlocked Utah, far from any sea, gulls are almost sacred to the Mormons thanks to the birds saving the first settlers from swarming locusts. :p Since gulls are not always near the seashore, seagull aliased to gull might be better.

Yeah, some gulls not always being seaside was another reason I suggested a reverse seagull -> gull alias

Oh and how could I forget! Gull should of course have a bird implication

reversed to seagull -> gull, otherwise done

Nice! Needs a bird implication I believe (and the now aliased seagull needs the implication removed), then it's all set.

there you go
