They get no respect. Truth be told they don’t help their cause much by hanging out in McDonald’s parking lots.

We started walking the river bank looking for eagles the other day and found ourselves surrounded by gulls. This was one of the the first groups seen up river, another sign winter is upon us.


It’s hard to ignore them when they start doing their acrobatics. Not many birds can match them. Not many as loud either.
Catching birds in flight with a big lens takes practice. The Gulls stay in the same general location and zoom around. What better way to practice. If you miss, wait a second for the next one.
Beautiful photos and great post 🙂
Thanks, I love the acrobatics of Gulls.
