The Salton Sea is home to huge numbers of Seagulls.
The Salton Sea is an enclosed basin. Evaporation is the only means for water to escape once it has flowed into this inland sea.
This leaves behind salt and mineral deposits and is the cause of the ever increasing salinity and pollution that plagues the Salton Sea.
The Salton Sea continues to shrink due to evaporation. The water which is left is ever more saline.
