IC 2177 also known as the Seagull Nebula is an emission nebula located in the constellation Monoceros. This nebula is around 1,500 light-years away from Earth and has an area of about 100 light-years across. The shape of the nebula resemble a seagull, but I kind of sea more of a Cockatoo in this close up, especially the head. The region also contains several bright nebulae, including NGC 2174, NGC 2175, and NGC 2185.
