Some stay in MD and some migrate, and I sure can't tell which is which.

Got pics of ringed-bill gulls on sandbar earlier. Just learned THIS: 'Where do seagulls migrate to and from?
This species will generally migrate south to warmer climates in winter. The North American birds move as far south as Mexico and South America. Some Herring gulls, particularly those found on the east coast and lower great lakes, may actually remain in situ and not migrate in the winter months.'
