Amanda Ritchie / Seagull Lore

"Another story of fishing conflict between Raven and gulls comes from the Tsimshian of Alaska: Raven had caught a number of small fish—olachen—which he was cooking over a fire. When he called the gull, many gulls came and ate all of the fish. Angered, Raven punished the gulls by throwing them into the fire, and that is why many gulls in Alaska have black wing tips."
